After the demise of Apartheid, the South African rugby team, (Springboks/Amabokoboko) went to Murrayfield, Edinburgh in Scotland to engage their Scottish counterparts. The last time the team made a trip to Scotland was in 1969, when they lost 6-3 to their host and demonstrations marred the tour. During the 1994 game the Springboks, under coach Kitch Christie, registered a convincing win against Scotland. The final score line was 34 -10 in favour of the Springboks.
