Limpopo Blue Bulls (known as the Assupol Limpopo Blue Bulls for sponsorship reasons) are a South African rugby union team that are part of the Blue Bulls Rugby Union and are therefore represented by the Blue Bulls in the annual Currie Cup and Vodacom Cup tournaments. They play out of Polokwane at the Peter Mokaba Stadium and draw players from the entire Limpopo province in South Africa. Their youth teams participate in competitions such as the Craven Week and Grant Khomo Week.
History
They played as an independent team in the Vodacom Cup, starting in the 2013 season.[1]
It was a very disappointing season, with the Limpopo Blue Bulls breaking several unwanted records, including the biggest ever first class loss in South African rugby history, when they lost 161–3 to the Golden Lions on 27 April 2013.[2]
