The WPRFU Executive, WP Rugby Board, Investec WP players, management, administration and supporters would like to extend their deepest condolences to the family, friends and team mates of talented Blue Bulls player Ettienne Botha, who was tragically killed in a car crash this morning.

The 26 year old centre was one of South Africa’s exciting young rugby talents, and was named Absa Currie Cup Player of the Year last year after his superb performances in the 2004 Absa Currie Cup.

Our thoughts and heartfelt sympathies go out to the Botha family in their time of sorrow.
