What do you like about False Bay?
The bay is like a family. It doesn't matter where you are from, or the colour of your skin, you are always welcome at the bay.. The vibe is unreal and can only be explained by experiencing the atmosphere on a Saturday at the bay.
Why the bay?
When I was at the academy, VD payed us a visit and sold the bay so well that it was always going to be the bay. I also live in the area.
Best Bay rugby moment?
2014, my first year at the bay, playing u20. We played in the final of the Presidents Cup at Newlands, where dreams are realised. I was fortunate to hav scored my most memorable try that day,,although we unfortunately lost(Durbell scored from a forward pass to win).
General comments:
The bay has to be the best, if not one of the best rugby clubs in the country, if not the world, and that's not only because of the brand of rugby that we play.
