SOUTH AFRICAN RUGBY TOUR 2004 In late July and early August, a squad of 27 boys and five staff will be undertaking the first long-haul rugby tour since 1999. The tour will last approximately three weeks and will involve playing six games, taking in Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and Durban. ‘Off-field’ experiences planned will include a tour of the Cape Peninsular and visits to the Table Mountain, Rourke’s Drift, Isandlwana (also the site of a battle) and a game reserve. The major cost of the tour will be met by the parents of the players, but over the coming weeks there will be various fundraising events, including an Auction of Promises, for which we are seeking sponsors prepared to donate goods and services for auction. If any <strong>Old</strong> <strong>Brutonian</strong> would like to contribute in any way, we should be most grateful. We should also welcome <strong>Old</strong> <strong>Brutonian</strong> support on the touch-line and can supply OB’s in South Africa with a tour schedule. When the fixtures are finalised, we will publish them on the OBA web-site. I can be contacted by telephone (01749 814239) fax (01749 813426) or e-mail (cab@kingsbruton.somerset.sch.uk).
