Albert Liebenberg - Lights, camera, action!

Loading player...
The Suzuki Griquas are excited and ready to take on the Toyota Cheetahs this weekend in the semi-finals of the 2025 Currie Cup, and it promises to be a special occasion in Kimberley.
Not only is it the first semi-final in the city in 27 years, but it will also be played under lights – a rare occurrence for Kimberley of late. While Suzuki Stadium boasts floodlights are better than some of the country’s biggest and most celebrated rugby venues in South Africa, they aren’t used often due to the high costs involved.
For Griquas lock Albert Liebenberg, one of the team’s more experienced players, playing under the floodlights in Kimberley will be a new experience. With it being both a derby and a semi-final, it makes the occasion even more special.
