Speedster Senatla signs on with Western Province

Speedster Seabelo Senatla has committed to a two-year contract extension with Western Province Professional Rugby (WPPR).

The fleet-footed wing, who is the all-time leading try-scorer for the Springbok Sevens team, has committed his future to the DHL Stormers and DHL Western Province.

Senatla made his DHL Stormers debut in 2015 and has since accumulated 33 caps, along with 38 caps for DHL Western Province. He has scored a combined total of 31 tries in that time, crossing the tryline nine times for the DHL Stormers and 22 times in the blue and white hoops of DHL Western Province.

DHL Stormers Head Coach John Dobson said that having a finisher of Senatla's class is a weapon any team would love to have in their arsenal.

"Seabelo's familiarity with the tryline is well-known, both in Sevens and 15s, but he brings much more than just deadly finishing abilities to our team.

"We want to create an environment for Seabelo to reach his considerable potential and be a Bok in both Sevens and 15s, which there is no doubt he is capable of.

"He is a model professional who works as hard as anyone and is constantly looking to improve himself, which is why it is so exciting to have him on board with us beyond the next Rugby World Cup in 2023," he said.
