About
The Hollywoodbets Sharks were crowned the SA Rugby U21 Cup champions of 2025 after recording a big victory over the Fidelity ADT Lions in the Final in Durban on 18 October.

The other teams who participated in 2025 were the Vodacom Bulls, who were knocked out in the semi-final by the eventual champions, as well as the Toyota Cheetahs, and Leopards.
