Loading...The SA Sevens star, Chris Dry will be leading the Toyota Free State Cheetahs when they tank on the Cell C Sharks on Saturday, 2 September in a Currie Cup match in Durban. Kick-off is at 16:15.

Free State Rugby awaits in great anticipation with the first Guinness PRO14 match on Friday 1 September 2017, against Ulster followed a week later against Munster in Ireland. On the same dates, the Toyota Free State Cheetahs will play in the Currie Cup against the Sharks (Durban) and Western Province (Cape Town), consecutively.
“Free State Rugby looks forward to the challenge for all players, staff, coaches as well as our supporters. It is necessary to point out that the overlapping of the Currie Cup and PRO14 is an extraordinary occurrence because it was implemented at short notice. It is however, foreseeable, that there will not be overlapping in future,” said Harold Verster, Managing Director of the Free State Cheetahs (Pty) Ltd.
Where the PRO14 overlaps with the Currie Cup, structures will be as follows:
Currie Cup Coach will be Daan Human with MJ Smith as backline coach. Albert Keuris will act as skills coach and Erick Colyn is the Physiotherapist. Ashwell Rafferty will be the Currie Cup Team Manager for the Season and will join Guinness PRO14 moving forward. Franco Smith, Director of Rugby will assist both teams with skills, structures and strategy.
