As the first black captain of the Springboks, he not only led the team to historic victories but also became a beacon of change in a nation with a complex past. His leadership on and off the field exemplifies the power of sports to unite and inspire.
Kolisi’s rugby journey began in his youth, showcasing talent that led him to represent South Africa at the under-20 level in the 2010 and 2011 IRB Junior World Championships. He made his senior debut for the Springboks on June 15, 2013, against Scotland, earning the Man of the Match award.
In 2018, Kolisi made history by becoming the first black player to captain the Springboks in a Test match. His leadership was pivotal in South Africa’s triumph at the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan, where they defeated England 32–12 in the final, marking the nation’s third World Cup win. Kolisi’s captaincy was lauded for uniting a diverse team and inspiring a nation.
Beyond the field, Kolisi’s commitment to social issues is evident through the Kolisi Foundation, established in 2020 with his wife, Rachel. The foundation focuses on addressing inequality in South Africa, tackling issues like gender-based violence, food insecurity, and education, particularly in under-resourced areas such as Zwide.
