Roc Nation Sports' newest member

Springbok winger Aphelele Fassi has become the latest addition to the Roc Nation family. 

Fassi, 23, is still in the beginning stages of his Springbok career, but continues to show great promise. He now joins fellow SA representatives Siya Kolisi, Cheslin Kolbe and Sbu Nkosi under the Roc Nation banner. 

“Roc Nation Sports are a family who are committed to professionalism, growing players holistically and helping them make a difference in their community,” Fassi was quoted as saying in a statement. 

“I was attracted to Roc Nation’s capabilities which align to the big dreams and goals I have for my career. 

“Given that my career is still quite young, knowing I have the right people around me gives me the peace of mind to focus on my priority which is rugby.” 

Roc Nation president Michael Yormark said: 

 “Aphelele is one of the most talented young rugby stars in SA and in the sport. Partnering with him is a natural fit due to both his rugby skills and incredible life story. We are looking forward to growing with him throughout his exciting career and providing him with the best opportunities to achieve his rugby and personal goals.”
