Bulls to tackle Sharks in pink at Loftus
The Bulls will sport their alternate pink strip when they host the Sharks in a URC clash at Loftus Versfeld on 30 October.
The Bulls announced in September that their alternative kit for this season would see a return of the pink jersey they debuted in the 2012 Super Rugby season.
The Pretoria franchise announced on Thursday that the local derby against the Sharks would be used to display their pink strip, as well as raise breast cancer awareness.
A statement from the Bulls read: "It will be South African rugby's biggest drive to support breast cancer awareness, with the entire Loftus Versfeld bathed in pink as the fans and players show that 'United We Care' for each other.
"The Bulls and the Sharks will literally carry this message on their backs. What will make this day even more special is that fans will have the opportunity to show their own support by uploading a photo of someone (or themselves) who has suffered from or is currently facing their own battle against breast cancer and it could feature on the back of the limited-edition match-day jerseys of both the Bulls and Sharks for the battle between the four lines...

The Bulls previously hosted #GetYourPinkOn clashes against the Stormers in 2012 and Cheetahs in 2016.
Director of rugby, Jake White, said he was excited about the campaign.
"There's still a lot of rugby to be played before we face the Sharks at Loftus, but we all know that the players and fans will be eagerly anticipating this local derby, so the game will no doubt be a key fixture for both teams.
"I'm not one for too many side shows, but I truly appreciate the idea of being able to support
