FANS ENCOURAGED TO JOIN IN THE GEES

Springbok Fan Malls will be set up in conjunction with SA Rugby and some of its commercial partners at Menlyn Park (Pretoria), Mall of Africa, Nelson Mandela Square, Eastgate (Johannesburg), Gateway (Durban), Mimosa Mall (Bloem), as well as Canal Walk and Tyger Valley Shopping Centre (Cape Town).

All these malls are fitted with generators and therefore not impacted by loadshedding, which means Bok fans can enjoy the Tests without any unnecessary interruptions, while creating a unique atmosphere – almost similar to that of a live stadium experience – as they get together to support their favourite team in action in France.

Castle Lager and Klipdrift will be providing liquid refreshments, Freddy Hirsch will be showcasing their special Bok Wors and BokWurst, Betway will be giving all fans a free bet – up to R1000 – Toyota will be giving away a vehicle in an exciting competition and FlySafair will give away flight tickets.
