Cape Town – This city’s mayor, Patricia de Lille, and SARU chief executive Jurie Roux are to address a media briefing for a “major rugby announcement” at Cape Town Stadium on Friday.
The under-utilised World Cup 2010 soccer venue has been the subject of much rugby-related speculation over the past few years -- affecting both the Sevens and XVs codes.
As far as Sevens is concerned, the city is known to be fancied by key figures in the International Rugby Board and long-time prominent sponsors like Emirates Airline – it operates a twice-a-day service to Cape Town – for hosting of the annual HSBC Sevens World Series SA leg.
