Sarel Cilliers rugby boys enjoy memorable outing to Kings Park
The boys were able to watch the Cell C Sharks play the Toyota Cheetahs at Hollywoodbets Kings Park Stadium and were super-excited to see themselves on the big screen during the match.
The Sarel Cilliers rugby boys had the time of their lives last weekend, leaving on Friday for a weekend in Durban. The boys were able to watch the Cell C Sharks play the Toyota Cheetahs at Hollywoodbets Kings Park Stadium and were super-excited to see themselves on the big screen during the match. For many of the boys, it was their first time in Durban and their first time at a big stadium. Kudos to Mr Dube, the sports master, for giving the boys this amazing opportunity that will never be forgotten.
The boys were then hosted by Amanzimtoti High School and were ready and excited to play rugby on Saturday.
The U/14 team won 10-5 after staging a dramatic comeback; they trailed by five points in the first half. The U/15 team lost 0-19 in a tough match. The U/16 boys stormed the field like Viking warriors with the Sarel Cilliers motto of ‘never surrender’ firmly entrenched in their minds. The game had to be stopped shortly into the second half, at a 63-0 win. The first team, not to be outshone by the younger teams, won with a convincing score of 50-3. ‘Most Outstanding Player’ was Tresor Bwato, who played a superb game of rugby. It was a weekend to remember and the boys really made their school proud. Sarel Cilliers thanks the hosts, coaches and drivers for taking such good care of the teams.
On Wednesday this week, the teams faced Vryheid Landbou and on the weekend, they will be playing John Ross High School. Fixtures for the term are coming to an end, with Derby Day against DHS being the last matches before exams start. Make sure you get a chance to support the players before the season ends.
