Rugby season kicks off at Sarel Cilliers festival today

Lots of top rugby will be on display over the two days of the festival.

The rugby season has started, and the annual Sarel Cilliers Rugby Day will kick off the schoolboy season today in Glencoe.

The opening day of the two-day rugby festival will start today at 1pm with the girls’ teams of Sarel Cilliers and Mandla Mthethwa locking horns. The main match on the opening day promises to be an exciting encounter under floodlights, between Sarel Cilliers’ Old Boys and Sentraal Rugby Club.

On Saturday, the action starts at 8am on all three fields. Highlights include the Ferrum High/Maritzburg College clash at 11.30am, the Dundee High/Greytown game at 3pm, and the Welkom Gim/Vryheid game at 4.10pm. The headline game features Sarel Cilliers taking on the might of Voortrekker of Pietermaritzburg at 5.20pm.

As always, Sarel Cillers will provide top hospitality and the occasion will be an opportunity to catch up with old rugby friends.

Dave van der Westhuizen, Rugby Day co-ordinator, said all are welcome but requested spectators refrain from bringing alcohol or food into the grounds. Refreshments will be sold at the venue.
