Sarel’s sport teams show plenty of self-belief

Sarel rugbytoer
Sarel Cilliers o/14 en o/15 rugby het op toer gegaan na Volksrust tydens die Maart vakansie. Na harde werk tydens die voor-seisoen was die seuns op goeie dreef en vol selfvertroue.
Die o/14 span het 1 wedstryd uit 3 gewen met tellings wat enige kant toe kon swaai, en die wedstryd van die week teen Ligbron van Ermelo wen Sarel Cilliers 15-10 na rotsvaste verdediging.

Die o/15 span het met n massiewe wedstryd teen Hugenote van Johannesburg begin en ongelukkig verloor, maar het terug geveg met die volgende wedstryde en albei gewen, met die grootste wen teen Affies Pretoria met ‘n telling van 27-24.

Theuns van Zyl is aangewys as die o/14 voorspeler van die week. Sarel Cilliers is ongelooflik trots op hierdie seuns en wens hulle alles van die beste toe vir ‘n opwindende seisoen wat voorlê in die tweede kwartaal.
