Blitzboks for LA sevens championship
April 26, 2025
|Weekend Argus on Saturday
THE Blitzboks received a welcome boost for next weekend’s Los Angeles Sevens with the inclusion of three key figures.
South Africa’s top try-scorer in this season’s World Sevens Series, Quewin Nortjé, as well as Ronald Brown and Mfundo Ndhlovu were included by coach Philip Snyman yesterday.
The trio missed out on some of the recent tournaments due to injury, having been part of the campaign where the Blitzboks finished fourth overall ahead of the LA World Championship 2025, which takes place next Saturday and Sunday.
The South Africans have been drawn in Pool A, and will face France on Saturday (9.12pm SA time), and then Great Britain (Sunday 12.13am) and Argentina (Sunday 3.46am).
Nortjé wasn’t part of the squad in Singapore, Brown missed out on the Vancouver final and Ndhlovu featured in the triumphant Cape Town Sevens.
Donavan Don, Dewald Human and Sebastiaan Jobb will miss out as a result.
“Donavan and Dewald picked up injuries in Singapore, and Sebastiaan is still suspended following his red card in Singapore,” Snyman said on Friday.
“It is great to have those three back, as they all have game breaking abilities.
