THERE'S A BUZZ ON THE WEST COAST!
The excitement is building in Langebaan this weekend as the South African Gallery of Legends (SAGOL), in partnership with SANParks, hosts another impactful Rugby Development Clinic aimed at growing the game and inspiring the next generation of rugby stars.
Today's programme kicked off with a special Coach-the-Coach Session for women coaches, led by the highly respected Aneesah Adams. Aneesah currently serves as the Head Coach of Women's Rugby at Stellenbosch University and is actively involved in rugby development structures within Western Province Rugby and SA Rugby. Her wealth of knowledge, experience, and passion for developing coaches made for an inspiring and empowering session focused on building coaching excellence and creating pathways for women in rugby.
Tomorrow, the excitement shifts to the field as young players from across the region participate in the Under-13 Boys and Girls Rugby Development Clinic. The clinic will be led by Springbok Legend Kabamba Floors alongside Aneesah Adams, providing participants with a unique opportunity to learn from some of South African rugby's finest ambassadors.
The day will focus on fundamental rugby skills, teamwork, leadership, discipline, and confidence building, while creating unforgettable memories for the young athletes taking part.
This initiative forms part of the ongoing commitment by SAGOL and SANParks to use sport as a vehicle for youth development, community upliftment, and talent identification throughout South Africa.
A special thank you to South African National Parks , all the coaches, players, parents, volunteers, and partners who have made this weekend possible.
🏉 Today we empowered coaches.
🏉 Tomorrow we inspire future champions.
🏉 Together we build the future of South African rugby.

FROM DEEP RURAL COMMUNITIES TO THE NATIONAL STAGE!
What an incredible weekend of U13 soccer trials in Phalaborwa and the Skukuza/Mkhuhlu area, with around 370 young players from deep rural communities getting the opportunity to showcase their talent.
A heartfelt thank you to the legendary Teenage Dladla for watching, motivating, encouraging and supporting these young Future Legends throughout the activation.
And a massive thank you to SANParks for believing in the SAGOL vision and helping us take opportunities directly to young people in rural communities.
The next step is to select and develop a strong U13 team with the goal of participating in the 2027 Bill Stuart U/13 National Tournament.
From rural communities to bigger stages. Young talent. Big dreams. Future Legends.
