Junior Springbok Women’s coach Flash Malinga has named his side for Friday’s second-round clash in the R10 African U20 Women’s Series against the San Clemente Rhinos in Stellenbosch.
The U20 series, which is hosted by SA Rugby at Paul Roos Gymnasium’s Markötter Stadium, is supported by World Rugby, Rugby Africa and UK Sport, with R10 the title sponsor.
The Junior Bok Women had to work hard for victory in their opening match against Tunisia on Monday, while the Rhinos were ruthless as they despatched an invitational SA Barbarians team in the second clash of the day.
Friday’s action will start when Uganda take on Tunisia (10h00), before the South African U20s take on their San Clemente Rhinos counterparts, with kick-off scheduled for 12h00. Both matches will be streamed live in SA Rugby’s YouTube channel.
