Utter chaos at the Cape Town SVNS as players celebrations go ‘overboard’

BY Jack Tunney  ·  Tuesday Dec 12, 2023

The SVNS circuit has been rebranded and reinvented this year to symbolise an opportunity for the younger generation to party and let loose in a festival-style atmosphere.

The recent tournament in Cape Town has been nothing short of dreamland for the 18-30’s crowd; with beer, music, sun, and fast-flowing rugby in full show. The crowd were packed to the rafters to enjoy the South African experience as the greatest in the game came together to put on a show.

After two days of grueling rugby, the winners of the tournament, Australia Women and Argentina Men, rightly joined in with the festivities – throwing themselves into the 2000 litre pool beside the pitch.

The jubilant scenes showed both sides in pure ecstasy as they celebrated their momentous wins in front of the rugby-mad crowd.

Clearly not built for the amount of people in the pool, however, the makeshift water feature split as the players were getting into full flow…

Chaotic scenes followed as players tried to protect the trophy as well as a certain player on crutches in immediate danger of slipping. Fortunately everyone was okay in the end, and the mishap will go down in SVNS history as a classic blooper
