Siya Kolisi | Inspiring Black Rugby Legend

Siya Kolisi is the new modern face of Africa, with a voice to unite a nation, who offers a new pathway for many. Away from the pitch, Siya Kolisi’s life story has captivated the world. Born to teenage parents, the 28 year old Stormers and Western Province flanker was born in the impoverished township of Zwide, just outside of Port Elizabeth on the Eastern Cape and was raised by his grandmother.

Today Kolisi stands as, not only a Rugby World Cup champion, but a BBC ‘Sports Star of the Year’ nominee and one of New African’s ‘Most Influential Africans’ – achievements that demonstrate the impact of his journey outside of sport.

Kolisi was also named in the Forbes Africa 2021 list of 100 most influential Africans.
