Five World Cup-winning Springboks will take the Webb Ellis Cup on its fourth stop of the RWC Trophy Blitz, at Loch Logan Mall in Bloemfontein on Thursday.
Local heroes Ox Nche and Cobus Reinach, who finished their schooling in the city at HTS Louis Botha and Grey College respectively, will be joined by Lukhanyo Am, Grant Williams and Trevor Nyakane.
The event is scheduled from 13:00-14:00.
'This is our fourth stop of the RWC Trophy Blitz and it's great to take the Webb Ellis Cup to Bloemfontein during an historic week, with the Boks facing Portugal at a sold-out Free State Stadium on Saturday,' said SA Rugby president Mark Alexander.
'The Free State is an important piece in the local rugby landscape, not only because of all the quality players who hail from the province, but they are also the current holders of the Currie Cup.
