Craven Week Warm-ups
Free State and Griffons won well in Welkom and Western Province enjoyed their visit to Oudtshoorn when the four south coast unions met with matches on Friday and Saturday.
In Welkom Free State beat Griqualand West Country Districts (in effect the old Northwest Cape) 69-10 while the Griffons (formerly Northern Free State) beat Griquas 57-7.
In Oudtshoorn, Western Province had four teams in action – their shadow Craven Week and Academy Week sides and two Under-16 teams looking towards Grant Khomo Week. Each of those sides scored many points.
