Blitzboks boosted by Sikhumbuzo Notshe arrival

Loose forward, Sikhumbuzo Notshe has boosted the Springbok Sevens squad ahead of the World Rugby Sevens Series.

The 24-year-old is on loan from Western Province and will be available for selection for the first four tournaments of the new 2017/18 HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series, before returning to the Stormers in mid-February for Super Rugby.

Notshe was part of the wider Springbok squad for the Incoming Series in 2016 and also represented SA A against the England Saxons last year. Along with current Springbok Sevens players, regulars, Ruhan Nel, Werner Kok and Seabelo Senatla, he was part of the Western Province team that won the Currie Cup final in Durban two weeks ago.
