SPOTLIGHT: Upcoming URC opponents the Stormers and Glasgow Warriors joined forces to give back to the community of Kylemore in the Western Cape on Tuesday ahead of the two side's upcoming clash in Stellenbosch this weekend.
The outreach is part of the URC's Communities United campaign where clubs are encouraged to engage in cross-hemisphere community activities who travel North and to South Africa.
The aim of the outreach is to engage with the local community in aid to educate the local fans on travelling teams and their players.
Players such as Grant Stewart, Patrick Schickerling, Alex Samuel, Ben Afshar, Duncan Weir and Stafford McDowall of the Glasgow Warriors and Herschel Jantjies, Ben Jason Dixon, Neethling Fouche, Manie Libbok and Damian Willemse of the Stormers took part in this exciting project.
The local kids of Kylemore Primary and Kylemore High School had the opportunity to participate in a coaching clinic presented by the various players - rubbing shoulders with their local and international heroes which will inspire the next generation of Vodacom URC talent in the years to come.

"It's been a busy welcome, we didn't really know what we're coming into but it's been a nice welcome," said Duncan Weir of the Glasgow Warriors.
He added: "It's been a nice welcome, obviously everyone is quite happy to see us here and it's nice to be around the communities a little bit."
"It's an amazing place isn't it, when you look around you see the mountains in the background and to see such a nice welcome," said Glasgow lock Stafford Mcdowall.
"I don't think we've ever seen such a lot of people welcome us to a school like that before which is definitely cool." Mcdowall added.
