There Is No Doubt That Trevor Nyakane Is the Boks Number One Tighthead at the Moment and Those Who Wrote Beast Off Are Way Wrong
“There is no doubt that Trevor Nyakane is the Boks number one tighthead at the moment and those who wrote Beast off are way wrong. Nyakane's transformation this season has been exceptional and his performance in Salta was one of the best ever by a Bok tighthead.” - Brendan Nel waxing lyrical on Twitter Volume 19, Number 30 15 August 2019 Register to receive your own free weekly newsletter at www.rugbyrsa.co.za Boks Claim First Rugby Championship Title Unless you’ve been living under a rock or visiting The win sets the Boks up nicely for this weekend’s one of the few places on the planet without a working friendly return match at Loftus, allowing the coach telecommunications infrastructure, you’ll know by to experiment a little.

Analysing Rugby Game Attendance at Selected Smaller Unions in South Africa
Analysing rugby game attendance at selected smaller unions in South Africa by PAUL HEYNS 12527521 B.Com (Hons), NGOS Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Business Administration at the Potchefstroom Business School of the North-West University Supervisor: Prof. R.A. Lotriet November 2012 Potchefstroom ABSTRACT Rugby union is being viewed and played by millions of people across the world. It is one of the fastest growing sport codes internationally and with more countries emerging and playing international and national games, the supporter attendance is crucial to the game. The rugby industry is mostly formal, with an international body controlling the sport globally and a governing body in each country to regulate the sport in terms of rules and regulations. These bodies must adhere to the international body’s vision and mission to grow the sport and to steer it in the correct direction. This study focuses on rugby game attendance of selected smaller unions in South Africa. Valuable information was gathered describing the socio- economic profile and various preferences and habits of supporters attending rugby games. This information forms the basis for future studies to honour the people that support their unions when playing rugby nationally or internationally. The research was conducted through interviews with influential administrators within the rugby environment and questionnaires that were distributed among supporters that attended a Leopard and Puma game. The main conclusions during the study were the failure to attract supporters to the Leopards and the Pumas local matches. The supporters list various reasons for poor supporter attendances namely: a lack of marketing, no entertainment, the quality of the teams that are competing, and the time-slots in which the matches take place.

Club Mykonos Supports Boland Rugby Training Camp
MEDIA RELEASE CLUB MYKONOS SUPPORTS BOLAND RUGBY TRAINING CAMP Learners at West Coast local primary schools recently benefited from the Regent Boland Cavaliers Rugby team, who hosted rugby clinics at the schools as part of a week-long training held at Club Mykonos in Langebaan, in the Western Cape. The training camp formed part of Regent Boland Cavaliers’ preparations for their campaign in the South African Rugby Union’s First Division of the ABSA Currie Cup competition which starts next month. The camp also provided the team an opportunity to promote the development of rugby in the Western Cape, with team members taking part in training, team building exercises and skills development. “The camp plays an important role in bringing together our players, who come from different parts of the country and from different backgrounds. It’s a chance for them to get to know their team mates, while also building their skills,” explained Francois Davids, president of the Boland Rugby Union. “We also found the excellent facilities at Club Mykonos to be of a high standard especially the astroturf and gym facilities which the players, coaches and medical staff highly appreciated. The complex’s outdoor adventures also gave us an opportunity to involve the players in team building exercises,” added Davids. The team took some time out to visit local schools and host rugby clinics. The clinics aim to promote the development of rugby in the area, with a focus on schools that lack resources. The team held clinics at Topolino Private School, Langebaan Pre-Primary, and Curro Private School, after school hours over the course of four afternoons.

In a Competition That's Become As Lopsided As Super Rugby, with Kiwi
“In a competition that’s become as lopsided as Super Rugby, with Kiwi teams dominating all comers, keeping line-ups a secret until matchday might give lesser sides a shot at upsetting the contenders.” - Jake White Volume 19, Number 17 16 May 2019 Register to receive your own free weekly newsletter at www.leopardnewsletters.co.za Tough, Uncompromising European Rugby As we mentioned last week, it was Heineken Cup weekend with the finals of both competitions playing out at St James Park in Newcastle, England. The lower tier Challenge Cup final took place on Friday night between two French clubs, ASM Clermont Auvergne and La Rochelle. While Clermont has won the Challenge Cup twice before (and been runners-up in the higher-tier Champions Cup three times), this final was their opponents’ first shot at a title at this level. It was a match that featured dogged defence – mostly from Clermont – and plenty of typical flair from both sides Saturday night saw kick-off in the big one: the but by the 60th minute the contest appeared pretty Champions Cup final, where four-time champions much over with La Rochelle trailing 26-9.
