The Shimlas Young Guns claimed the U/20 Varsity Cup title when they beat the defending champions UP-Tuks Young Guns during a nail-biting extra time kick-off competition in Pretoria on Monday.

The U/20 Tuks team had not lost a Young Guns game for three years as they headed into this clash. They took an early lead in front of their home crowd and stayed ahead until the second half. Yet, the UFS started making their comeback when lock Justin Basson crossed the try line and leveled the score.

Both Shimlas and Tuks scored another try before the whistle blew, still leaving the scores level at full time. The goal kicking done by the UFS in extra time sealed the deal for a first ever Young Guns tournament title for our boys from Bloemfontein.
