#WelcomeHomeBokke: The Springboks Return

This morning saw the return of The Springboks at OR Tambo International Airport. Fan favourites such as Jean De Villiers, Victor Matfield, Schalk Burger as well as coach, Heyneke Meyer were amongst some the squad that returned at 7:15am.

Last week we sent out a call to all Jacaranda FM listeners to get behind the Boks, using the hashtag '#WelcomeHomeBokke' on all social media platforms. It was important for us at Jacaranda FM with the help of you, the listeners, to get behind the team and give them an incredible welcome home.


We were at the airport this morning awaiting some of the players, while handing out some SA flags as well as T Shirts to few lucky fans.
