The 1981 Anti-Springbok Tour protesters hoped to get the attention of the public, by making large scale protests involving almost all of the locals. They hoped to educate the public, of the situation over in Southern Africa, and how the Aparteid were conducting racial and capitalist actions against innocent civilians.

New Zealand became a divided country in the fact that half thought it was 'just a game' & the other half saw it as being racist in not letting non-white human beings play alongside the springboks in the 1981 Springbok Tour. Mass protests were held all over he country, and flour bombs were dropped on to the fields while the All Blacks and the Springboks were playing in the final. Anti-Apartheid protesters were beaten by police with batons & the majority of the protesters were arrested with blood dripping down their faces & bodies.

Unfortunately you have not stipulated which nation you were referring to. However, there were disruptions and anti tour protests between 1964 and late. 70s. The All Blacks toured in 1960, despite a campaign based on the slogan of "No Maoris, No Tour", and a 150,000 signature petition opposing it. IN matches played in the UK in the Mid 70s the Springbok received a very uncustomary welcome to the Arms Park in Wales where the main access street to the stadium was blocked by Apartheid protesters and then during the national anthems the manager of Wales Carwyn and Flanking John Taylor refused to take the field until the anthems were completed as a protest to the continuing exclusion of black players considered for the South African team and the clear anti behaviour against black opponents.
