Thrills and spills at Douglas Mitchell

The event was held to raise funds for local rugby referees.

IT may have taken a little while to get going, but by the time lunch rolled around there was a festive atmosphere at Douglas Mitchell Sports Ground last Saturday.

It was here that a Family Fun Day was taking place to raise funds for the Southern KwaZulu-Natal Rugby Referees’ Society.

There were all kinds of activities on the go, from three-legged races, tug of war, and more.

Caught on camera is Tania Gous, one of the event organisers.

There was also some rugby played, although nothing too serious.

Organiser Jaco Gous thanked all those who put in such hard work for the event.

Believe it or not this was actually a game of touch rugby.

He also thanked those who came to support it, and be part of the fun.

All in all, it was worth the effort and the feeling was that this is the kind of event that can grow in the future.

Nikita Kleyhans and Phillip Swart find moving at speed not so easy in the three-legged race.
