Three Kovsies were selected for the SA u.20 Rugby Junior World Championship which will take place in Wales during June.

The three who made it to the final squad are PW van Vuuren, Wilton Pietersen and Robert Ebersohn.

The 7 Kovsies in the initial squad were PW van Vuuren, Wilton Pietersen, Robert Ebersohn, Earl Snyman, Cameron Jacobs, Marlin Ruiters and Sias Ebersohn.

Van Vuuren and Pietersen both played for the SA u.19 team in 2007. Robert Ebersohn is a first-year student at Kovsies. Pietersen and Ebersohn, who played for the SA Sevens earlier this year, will be in action on Friday in the Vodacom Cup final clash between the Cheetahs and the Bulls.

All three these players played for the Shimlas in the FNB Varsity Cup.
