There was a nice touch added to the United Rugby Championship (URC) medal award ceremony on Saturday.

This after the Stormers beat the Bulls 18-13 to claim the inaugural trophy.

Young children were on hand to confer gold medals to the Stormers players and, as video footage showed, it's a mystery who was more excited about the gesture: the youngsters or the players.

The players wore broad smiles, they knelt in front of the youngsters, Marvin Orie gave away his scrum cap and Seabelo Senatla gave the young man tasked with his medal and cap a warm embrace.
