Schools to play at Ellis Park

By
Friday 11 Mar 2016

It is a wonderful opportunity for schools.

This will be for the four matches the Lions will be playing at home after they get back from New Zealand.

When the Lions play the Cheetahs, Hoërskool Monument – for many years now the premier high school within the Lions’ borders – will meet the enterprising HTS Louis Botha from Bloemfontein in the main curtain raiser where rugby has been on the up.

 

Three other mouth-watering school games have been secured as the main appetisers for the games against the Crusaders, Hurricanes and Blues.

 

It’s definitely not an April fools joke, but KES and Helpmekaar are set to meet in a curtainraiser for the Crusaders clash, while Kempton Park and Transvalia will meet before the Lions kick off against the Hurricanes.

 

Parktown Boys and St Benedict's will play in the curtainraiser to the Blues clash in May.

 

March 19: Lions vs Cheetahs

14.30: HTS Louis Botha vs Monument

 

April 1: Lions vs Crusaders

16.30: KES vs Helpmekaar

 

April 30: Lions vs Hurricanes

14.30: Kempton Park vs Transvalia

 

May 14: Lions vs Blues

16.30: Parktown vs St Benedict's
