Cape Town - Western Province coach Allister Coetzee and hooker Scarra Ntubeni were named as the respective Currie Cup Coach and Player of Month for September.
Coetzee’s team have been the epitome of consistency and are unbeaten after nine rounds as they aim to defend their title.
Golden Lions coach Johan Ackermann was in a close second place behind Coetzee with his side featuring among the front-runners in the competition.
Ntubeni has been one of the standout players this season with his relentless work-ethic making him an important part in the Western Province machinery. The 22-year-old hooker is growing in stature and is continuing to make an impression in the competition.
