After two consecutive defeats, the Welwitschias will face the Valke this weekend in Windhoek. 

Despite the recorded losses, the coaches are still happy with the progress being made over the last few weeks.  

The Welwitschias have started the season with two losses, but the coaches are nevertheless happy with the progress made. NRU Director of Rugby Allister Coetzee states that the building process will take time. 

This weekend, the Welwitschias will face the Valke from Gauteng. Like the Welwitschias, the Valke have also played against both the SWD Eagles and the Border Bulldogs. 

The Welwitschias played to a 5-point difference against the Bulldogs, while The Valke beat the Bulldogs with an astonishing 47-point difference. 

In the encounter between the Valke and the Eagles, the former also dominated, but the point difference compared to the Namibians was not as grave.  

RESULTS 
BORDER BULLDOGS 26 - 21 WELWITSCHIAS       
VALKE 64 - 17 BORDER BULLDOGS    
                
WELWITSCHIAS 22 - 31 SWD EAGLES 
VALKE 44 -38 SWD EAGLES

It is expected that this weekend's game could be a lot tougher than the two before. 

The Welwitschias' game against the Valke will kick off at 16:00.
