The SuperSport Rugby Challenge festival encapsulates festive rugby as it brings together a blend of club and provincial rugby from four unions over the northern region of the country.
The Valke Rugby Union will play host to the SuperSport Rugby Challenge festival on May 26 at the Bosman Stadium.
It is an initiative that brings back rugby to the community and give locals the opportunity to support their favourite team in their own backyard. People from rural areas have the opportunity to more affordable access to the game they love.
In the first match of the day, it is one of the top clubs from the Blue Bulls, Centurion, that will face the flamboyant running rugby of Phakisa East Rand United from the Valke in the Volcano Super Cup series.
The second match of the day hosts the two Gauteng giants, the Blue Bulls against the Golden Lions, which will be an epic battle for bragging rights on a mutual venue.
In the final game of the day, Valke, the host, will play against the team from the Northern Freestate, the Griffons, which will see running rugby at its best, with two teams that are closely matched.
Come and enjoy the day at Bosman Stadium, Brakpan. Entrance at the gate is free and parking is only R10 per car. There will be lots to drink and eat on this festive Sunday.
The fixtures are:
10.30am – Phakisa East Rand United vs Centurion
12.30pm – Blue Bulls vs Golden Lions
2.30pm – Valke vs Down Touch Griffons
