Castle South Africa 2009 Lions Series

The hunt is on as the British & Irish Lions arrive here on their 12-yearly safari to Africa. The Castle South Africa 2009 Lions Series kicks off in May and runs to July in what is the biggest global rugby event outside of a Rugby World Cup. The best players from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales join forces to face not just the Springboks but the best our provinces can throw at them in their ten-match tour across the length and breadth of the country.

If you can't make it to the stadiums, you can share a part of the last great rugby adventure at Boktowns - local remote screening venues with a festive atmosphere - which will be set up at Monte Casino (Johannesburg), Sun Coast Casino (Durban) and La Med (Cape Town). The games will also be flighted on DSTV's Supersport channel.
