Bok men's and women's teams play key matches home and away
Cape Argus
|August 22, 2025
SOUTH Africa's sporting hopes will rest on the shoulders of the Springbok men's and women’s teams this weekend as they play crucial matches in Cape Town and Northampton, respectively.
While the Boks will have their backs against the wall at DHL Stadium (5.10pm kickoff) tomorrow, looking to overturn a poor start to the Rugby Championship against Australia, the nation will watch with bated breath on Sunday when the women’s side opens its Rugby World Cup campaign at Franklin's Gardens against Brazil.
Immediate attention will be on the Springboks’ response following their 38-22 loss in the opener against the Wallabies.
They have a point to prove as they aim to get their campaign back on track and avoid consecutive defeats to the Australians.
