Cape Town, South Africa<\/strong> \u2013 On Saturday, 7 May 2016, the Western Province Rugby Football Union (WPRFU) and Spur will handover almost 4 000 rugby jerseys to schools signed under the union\u2019s rugby structure. The event will take place at the Bellville Technical High School.<\/p>\n

This mini rugby day, billed as one of the biggest events at school level in Western Province Rugby, will also be attended by DHL Stormers stars Nizaam Carr, Jean Kleyn, Leolin Zas, Wilco Louw, Brandon Thomson, Jean-Luc du Plessis, EW Viljoen, David Ribbans and Kurt Coleman. These young rugby stalwarts will mingle with the children and parents and will be available for signature sessions and photo opportunities during the day.<\/p>\n

The union will welcome 318 teams from 93 different schools with matches set to start at 08:00 and conclude by 14:00.<\/p>\n

Over the last few years this event has grown significantly and has seen the start of many successful careers of rugby players that have gone on to wear the famous blue and white DHL Western Province hoops. \u201cSpur Steak Ranches is proud to present our future rugby champions with the platform to enjoy sports and hone their skills through the enjoyable game of mini rugby\u201d, said Khakhi Diala, Brand Activation Manager of the Spur Group. Spur is the majority sponsor of the mini rugby day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very thankful to Spur for supporting this worthy initiative to introduce young people to rugby and grow the game. Spur has been our partner in this day since 2009, so we value their support and look forward to another successful Mini Rugby Day\u201d, said Thelo Wakefield, President of the Western Rugby Football Union. This event is part of WPRFU\u2019s effort to make the game of rugby accessible to all young South Africans living in the region.<\/p>\n
