The Old Mutual U16 Young Sables make it 2 wins from 2 games in the Grant Khomo Craven Week tournament in Pretoria earlier this afternoon. After having beaten Griquas on Monday 15-13, the Zimbabwe team defeated Griquas Country Districts earlier this afternoon.
Against Griquas on Monday, scoring came by way of 3 unconverted tries by Mufaro Mpisaunga, Nqobisile Ncube and Travis Landing- the final score being 15-13.
Earlier this afternoon against the Griquas Country Districts, a solitary try by Adriaan Kok and 2 penalties by Benajmin Meredith was enough to provide the Old Mutual Young Sables their 2nd victory, this time by 1 point.
The Zimbabwe team are expected to play Namibia in their final match of the tournament on Thursday before returning back to Zimbabwe.
Last week the U13 Young Sables completed a very successful campaign in the U13 Craven Week tournament only losing 1 of their 4 games in Durban.
