What is the Cape Town 10s?

The Cape Town 10s is the world’s biggest 10s sporting tournament, and started in 2008 as a ten-a-side rugby tournament conceived by Ron Rutland along with South African rugby legends Bob Skinstad and Robbie Fleck. Teams come from everywhere to join in this bustling one-of-a-kind tournament, where participants can play in netball, touch rugby, cricket, dodgeball, padel, golf, and of course rugby. Alcohol is readily available, and the enthusiasm of the tournament’s participants, from the catered meals to the matching uniforms, is both infectious and exciting.

The Sport, the Music, and That Beer Tent

While the tournament sounds like a bunch of friends getting together to hae a good time and play a bunch of games, it is a serious tournament attended by many competitive individuals. Some of the prior tournaments have had some of the world's best rugby players, and even unexpected legends. South Africa's beer tent is legendary, and the beer is complemented by their live music, where many of the biggest artists perform. Pair this with some incredible weather, and it is the most difficult atmosphere to compete with.

Cape Town as the Setting

Having the host location as Cape Town is definitely a bonus. With Table Mountain looming in the background, and the Atlantic Ocean right there, you have that excellent Cape Town late Summer weather. With this iconic setting, the venue really surpasses the level of your average Saturday afternoon sports day. Even people in the crowd that haven't played rugby in years are captivated by the action by mid-morning.

A Grassroots Event That Became a Global Party

Cape Town 10s remains different from other similar events in that it has kept its true spirit from the beginning. Keeping things light and fun, and the rugby secondary is the heartbeat of the weekend. No matter how your team does in the tournament, you will not sidestep after a match. The gees, as South Africans say, remains from the first game all the way to the last song.
