Siya Kolisi, the Sharks and Springbok captain, is set to be honoured by Grey High School with the main field being named after him. 

Kolisi attended the school between 2005 and 2009. He was captain of the first team in 2009.

He went on to have an epic rise on the rugby field, captaining the Springboks to 2019 Rugby World Cup and 2021 British & Irish Lions glory.

The renaming of the field will happen on 14 May when Grey High goes up against Queen’s College for their first reunion weekend since 2019.

This comes after another former Springbok, Kaya Malotana, was also honoured by his former high school, Queen’s College Boys’ High School. The school renamed the main grandstand after him.

That moment also happened during the school’s reunion weekend from 15-17 April.
