The NWU PUKKE is currently the front runner with 14 points already on the log. PUKKE should also be the toughest team to beat this weekend, with the inclusion of two Protea players in their side. Sulette Damons and Celia Evans will be part of the Northwest’s attempts to stay at the top.
Kovsies and UP Tukkies will also boast with Proteas. Izelle Lategan and Tanya Brits will strengthen Kovsies’ team, while Lilian du Plessis is part of the Tukkies team. Both our university and Tukkies have 10 points after the first three matches played in Potchefstroom.
