Cape Town - The Sharks will play in a commemorative jersey when they tackle Western Province in a Currie Cup clash at Kings Park on Saturday.
This year the KwaZulu-Natal Rugby Union celebrates its 125 year anniversary, and in celebration of this proud milestone, the Sharks have opted to alter their kit for the game against WP.
According to the Sharks’ official website, the design of the jersey will have a striking resemblance to the first ever Currie Cup jersey the old Natal played in.
Saturday's clash at Kings Park is scheduled for 17:05.
