MY SON'S RUGBY CV
His dad is an old rugby springbok and played for the then Transvaal Province.
So, we have Lions and Shark supporters in the family.

a 3 year contract with the Sharks.
He achieved the following:-
1998 - U12 Nike All Stars KZN

I can just imagine how you feel Zelia, I have a son and would not wish this on him - or anyone...
Your son has a CV to be so proud of...he has done so much in such a short time...how is he feeling???
Thanks for sharing his story.
Thanx Marcy for reading... I am so proud of him and he's achieved everything he worked for... He represented KZN -Sharks in every age group, every single year since the age of 12 ... And then he got sick this year...(22y)
He just got back from the Drs in Durban and the good news is, his heart is 100% and that is fantastic. They fine-tuned his pacemaker so the 'jolt' when the pacemaker kicks in is not so severe... Thank you for your kind words I really appreciate it...
