It might be a cliche: "We need to transform SA and coach young aspiring Rugby players to be part of the springboks in the future"...Well the Springboks and the Pumas (Argentine counterparts) did just that when they took part in a tranformation set up in Dobsonville Soweto..
Young one from ages of 10-18 where also screaming "BEAST BEAST"...."Jongi, you play for the Cheetahs right?I want to play like you when I grow up"....you should have seen the excitment on their faces and how they absolutely love Rugby...Please do not deny them of this opportunity South Africa...
The Springbok coach had this to say: "We said we want to be the people's team. My teachers and coaches never knew what they had in me, and maybe one day these kids can show the same (potential)...if we can change some of these kids lives then we are glad to do that".
As you can see...I was there to capture the moments and snuck a picture with the Beast and Jongi (without looking like a groupie..coz trust me I'm not...I'm just avarage...hahaha)
