A development agreement between the Stormers and Griquas will see a group of the Kimberley team's players join up with the Capetonians as they prepare for the 2024/25 URC campaign.

The agreement, which was announced earlier this year, enables players to move between the two squads on loan agreements. It also includes collaboration between staff members of the two franchises.
