Blitzbokke ready for Glasgow─── 08:30 Tue, 05 May 2015
The Springbok Sevens team are looking for a strong showing this weekend in the Glasgow Sevens, which it the penultimate round of the Sevens World Series.
The Blitzbokke still leading the standing on 129 points after seven rounds on the circuit.
South Africa made two changes to their squad which arrived in Scotland yesterday with former Toyota Cheetahs winger Philip Snyman and Stephan Dippenaar returning from injury.
The team will fight it out at the same venue of their Commonwealth Games triumph last year, and this time they face a daunting task to qualify for the quarter-finals with New Zealand, Samoa and Kenya in Pool B.
Speaking out of the Glasgow, Snyman said it will take a massive team effort to win this weekend, but they are confident they can do it.
The Blitzbokke faces Samoa at 11:58 on Saturday, and this will be followed by Kenya at 15:04 and the current series champions New Zealand at 18:37.
