Enrico Acker, scrumhalf of the FNB Shimlas

Enrico Acker, scrumhalf of the FNB Shimlas, has been named as the FNB Varsity Cup’s best back of the series.

Earlier in the series, during the FNB Shimlas’ victory over the TUT, Enrico was named as the match’s Player that Rocks. Soon afterwards the Free State Vodacom Cup team announced that they wanted him.

In reaction to this, Enrico said that he would like to finish his season with the FNB Shimlas. “I have come a very long way with them and would like to be involved in the semi-finals, as well as, if we get the opportunity, in the finals,” he says.

Keep a lookout for the match times of our residences league on the Student Portal and come and support the men.
