Vodacom Bulls
The Vodacom Bulls, as the proud franchise is known today, trace their beginnings to a decision made in 1938, when the Northern Transvaal Rugby Union (NTRU) opted to break away from the Transvaal Rugby Union with the sole purpose of establishing themselves as a competitive rugby union in South Africa
The Barberton Daisy was adopted as the NTRU’s emblem, while light blue became the colour synonymous with success. The union experienced their first taste of glory eight years later when the NTRU lifted the Currie Cup for the first time in 1946. The Vodacom Blue Bulls have since gone on to win the Currie Cup on 24 occasions.
A decision was made at the beginning of the 1998 season to change the proud union’s name to the Blue Bulls in domestic competitions and simply the Bulls in Vodacom Super Rugby.
The Vodacom Bulls have been the most successful South African franchise in Vodacom Super Rugby, having appeared in three victorious finals since the tournament’s inception in 1996.
In 2020, the Vodacom Bulls added their fourth title when they won a condensed Vodacom Super Rugby Unlocked competition, which was contested by the South African Vodacom Super Rugby franchises, along with the Toyota Cheetahs, Tafel Lager Griquas, and NNC Pumas.
In the 2021/22 season, the Vodacom Bulls took part in the inaugural Vodacom United Rugby Championship and went on to reach the Grand Final of the cross-hemisphere tournament, where they faced the eventual winners, the DHL Stormers, in Cape Town.
