Josphat Moloto, manager at the Blue Bulls Rugby Union (BBRU), explained that they have worked on developing six teams from communities in Sekhukhune.
“We are have been busy for the last five years and currently have two girls’ teams, u/16 and u/18, and four boys’ teams that we coach,” said Moloto.
“I’ve seen the development and the interest in the sport growing under the youngsters,” he said.
He added that the teams have competed in municipal, schools and sponsored tournaments and that three of their players were selected to play in inter provincial tournaments this year.
He added that this much needed boost from Toshiba would benefit all of the rugby players.
