\"NewsGFreeStateSharks\"The Sharks High Schools Association<\/strong> is hosting a fundraiser event, in which they host teams from the Griffons and Pumas in preparation for the various youth weeks that will be taking place over the next month.<\/p>\n

This event over the weekend will provide the coaches and players an opportunity to spend some more time together and work out their final niggles before the provincial competitions begin.<\/p>\n

In the final match of the weekend, the Sharks Craven Week team will be playing against the Puma Craven Week team as a curtain-raiser before the Currie Cup semi-final between the Cell C Sharks and the Airlink Pumas which will be a special opportunity for the boys.<\/p>\n

It will be interesting to see how the Griffons Craven Week team stack up against the Sharks on Friday, having already competed as a group twice before.<\/p>\n

They played against the Free State Academy team at the Free State Bondedag, winning 27 -19, before coming up short 41-8 against the Free State Craven Week team at the Griqua Bondedag the following week.<\/p>\n
