The Springbok squad embarked on their illustrious trophy tour as they painted the City of Johannesburg green and gold in celebration.

As per EWN, this remarkable journey with the Webb Ellis Cup saw the Boks’ parade commencing in Pretoria on Thursday morning and culminating at the FNB Stadium, south of Joburg, on Thursday afternoon.

It resembled a beautifully scripted tale of spirit and success, breathing new life into the steps of over 60 million South Africans. This story traces back to the dawn of our democracy, where a simple dream was born: the belief that sport could unite and foster social cohesion.
