Posted on June 24, 2016

In their last encounter, the Tuks U/20 team headed into their break not only taking full points but also securing a home semi-final in this year’s Carlton Cup. On the 23 June 2016, the Tuks men took on semi-final spot contenders TUT at Loftus. The Tuks U/20 team dominated the match and scored six tries against TUT and leaving their Tshwane rivals without a single point. Tuks sealed their victory with 36-0 against TUT.

Update on USSA

The final preparations for USSA are underway and it’s all systems go for the Tuks boys. The Tukkie men will jet off to PE on a quest to secure the USSA title that they missed out on last year by a single point to the University of Johannesburg the scoreline ended at 14-13.

Jaco Snyman, Tian Nel , Pieter van Vuren  and Theuns Renolds  will still be part of the team this year. Tuks will face CUT in their first game of the tournament. It will not be a walk in the park as the UP-Tuks 1 Varsity Cup team had a hard time against CUT in this year’s edition of Varsity cup.

Coaches will be well aware of the strong back 3 and fly half that the CUT team has. But Tuks boys are ready and nothing will stop the Tukkies from going out on the field and giving their all against CUT.
