VANDERBIJLPARK - A candlelight vigil will be held tonight at the North West University in Vanderbijlpark for the talented rugby player Vilano Saunders. The 20-year-old reportedly passed away in the Sebokeng Hospital after suffering a neck injury during an under-21 match against Springs Rugby Club in the Valke Presidents’ Cup. A Facebook event created by a fellow student, states that a candlelight vigil will be held for Saunders tonight at 18:00 pm at the NWU rugby field. This is for fellow classmates who never had the chance to say their final goodbyes or properly pay their respects.
