Personal Overview

Rugby has been for the most part of my life, my life. From playing at U8 level, to being selected to represent my province at junior levels for the Blue Bulls, to being contracted to Western Province Rugby Academy U19’s. At the academy we played matches against the USA, France and the UK winning all our matches. I have played for South Africa’s oldest rugby club Hamilton’s SP RFC, in the Super A league at U20A level. At school level I represented some of the best rugby schools in South Africa. Garsfontein Primary School U13 1st XV, Garsfontein High School U14A, U15A and U16A. I was accepted into one of the best rugby schools in the world for my rugby attributes, Paarl Boys High (Boishaai) to complete my schooling and rugby in 2017 and 2018.

I am Bok Smart National Rugby Safety Certified. My certification number is BS-0095492

My current strengths are my ability for quick off the mark high speed and being very agile, this makes me very difficult to catch from a ruck, scrum etc. my ability to sidestep, and kick with both feet are an asset to me. I favour my left foot although I am right handed. I also have the ability to see space and have excellent peripheral vision. I am not afraid to tackle even the biggest player on the field thus adding to my defence abilities.

I have been working very hard to get to where I am today, and I am entirely focused on my goals. I have travelled on a bumpy road to achieve what I have, and these obstacles coupled with my strong ethics have given me the strength and to appreciate the real important things in life. I will keep on going whatever the outcome.

My motto is “I shall wear my scars like a badge of courage and honour”
