Why are the Vodacom Stormers called Vodacom Western Province in local South African rugby?

AnswerIn South Africa's Premier Rugby competition, The Currie Cup, 8 Unions compete. Western Province or Vodacom Western Province as they are known for sponsorship reasons are one of the top sides in this competition. However in the Super 14 there are only 5 representatives from South Africa and the Vodacom Stormers who play in Newlands, Cape Town the home of Western Province are allowed to select players from both Western Province and the neighbouring Boland union for their side. Western Province are traditionally a far stronger union than Boland therefore their players make up the majority of the side. Thus while the Stormers play in the same stadium as Western Province they draw players from a wider geographical area.Another reason is that all sides in the S14 competition have team names like, The Bulls, The Chiefs, The Crusaders, The Western Force so a descriptive team name for Western Province had to be picked for this competition hence The Stormers.
