The first big club rugby weekend of 2025 is in the books and what a way to kick things off!
Potchefstroom Dorp Rugbyklub’s teams gave local supporters a thrilling mix of victories, tough competition, and pride-inspiring performances.
Weekend Results – 29 March 2025
🏉 Potch Dorp Women 29 – 17 Ikageng Women
🏉 Potch Dorp 2 17 – 39 Leeudoringstad 1
🏉 Potch Dorp 1 92 – 0 Hurricanes
The First Team dominated with an unforgettable win, although the match was stopped early out of respect for an on-field injury. The club stands in full support of the decision and wishes all injured players a speedy and full recovery.
The Second Team showed real heart and fight, and our Women’s team – once again – made us incredibly proud.
