It is the last round of regulation play in the 2023 FNB Varsity Shield and the best has been saved for last – a titanic tussle between log leaders FNB UWC and second-placed FNB Madibaz in Gqeberha that will determine who gets promoted to the FNB Varsity Cup.
The team who finishes top of the log wins outright promotion to the big leagues of the Varsity Cup. The losers will however have a second bite at the apple and whom they will face is yet to be decided.
Defending champions FNB UFH host FNB TUT at home in a must-win match if they want to make the semi-finals. They are currently fifth on the log with the Pretoria team two points ahead in fourth place.
Pride is on offer in the KZN derby between FNB UKZN and FNB WSU. Sixth and seventh on the log respectively, they are out of contention for the playoffs.
FNB CPUT takes to the field in Cape Town for their last match against FNB Rhodes. They are sitting comfortably in third position, while Rhodes is yet to win a game this year.
