Another unsavoury incident played out during a school boy rugby match in Cape Town this past weekend when a game between Fairmont High School (Durbanville) and The Settlers High School (Bellville) was abruptly called off by the referee due to an alleged racial incident.
A social media video captured the referee stating, “There was a k-word going on here, and I won’t tolerate it”.
Both schools released similar statements after the rugby match was called off“Dear Fairmont and Settlers Learners, Parents and Guardians.
“We are aware of the unfortunate incident that occurred during the rugby interschools match today,” Fairmont School posted to Facebook.
