“Assupol has been sponsoring sports at grassroots level for years now. There is a big demand for rugby and we felt it important to sponsor the tournament,” said Baithuti Mabiletsa, the specialist communication strategist for Assupol.
There will be no more splits between universities because for the first time in history, the universities will all get involved and compete during the tournament…
The 2014 club series will include 29 clubs from 5 rugby provinces. An estimated 3180 players, 400 club officials and 128 teams are expected to participate in the tournament.
A man recognized for having a strong passion for rugby, Gert Wessels said that there will be no more splits between universities because for the first time in history, the universities will all get involved and compete during the tournament.
The mood for the evening was one filled with gratitude to everybody who put in an effort, especially the sponsors who have contributed funds that will go to fuel for travelling, buying rugby kits and much more.
