Boksburg Rugby Club back in training
Boksburg Rugby Club's u-19, u-21, third, second and first team sides have returned to training ahead of the new rugby season.
According to club chairman Sean Scheepers, the sides resumed training on the second week of January and training will be held every Tuesday and Thursday between 6.30pm and 8.30pm.
Coming up first for the first team that will be participating in the 2014 Cell C Community Cup later on this year, are friendly matches against the Bloemfontein Crusaders (February 8) and the Valke senior team (February 15).
The match against the Crusaders will be played in Kroonstad with the Valke face-off set to take place at PG Park.
“The two friendly matches will help us finalise the squad for the Community Cup,” says Scheepers.
“We are going to take two sides to both games before finalising the team which will play in the Community Cup.”
Meanwhile, the club’s u-19, u-21, third and second team sides will join the Community Cup team in the Delmas Rugby Day on February 22, where all the sides will be in action.
All the club’s sides except the Community Cup team will thereafter turn their attention to the Assupol League, which gets underway on March 1.
The Assupol League will then be followed by the Valke League, with its dates to be confirmed after the conclusion of the Assupol League.
The senior team starts its Cell C Community Cup campaign away against BB Truck Noordelikes of Limpompo on March 8.
