South Africa’s best Under-16
boys will be on show at the SA Rugby Grant Khomo Week, which will be staged at
Hoër Landbouskool Boland in the Western Cape over the next four days.
The tournament marks the start
of SA Rugby’s annual Youth Weeks programme, and will run from 26 to 29 June.
Twenty teams will be in action across the matches played on Monday, Tuesday and
Thursday.
The competition was initially
scheduled to take place at the Paul Roos Gymnasium’s Markötter Fields in
Stellenbosch. Due to the heavy rains in the region, those pitches are no longer
fit for play, and the decision has been taken to move the Grant Khomo Week to
Hoër Landbouskool Boland.
The action will commence on
Monday morning, with the Pumas U16 side tackling their Griquas counterparts at
08:00 on the A field.
The Grant Khomo Week Opening
Ceremony at 15:h00 will be followed by the local derby between Western Province
and Boland.
