A new title for the UCT Rugby Club's growing collection of annals is Hooked on Varsity, launched at UCT on 2 December, in which medical graduate (MBChB, 1957) and rugby old boy Ivan Nurick reflects on his longstanding support of the club. It's a relationship that started in 1945 before Nurick had even seen his first UCT game, when, aged but 10, he decided to support UCT to buck the Matie-mad trend in his hometown of Indwe. In the memoir, Nurick - in picture, second from left, with Derek van den Berg, Cecil Moss and John le Roux at the launch - looks back at UCT's most famous victories, the memorable intervarsities against Stellenbosch University, captains, coaches, Springboks and many more highlights.
