The South African Rugby Union has confirmed that Rohan Janse van Rensburg will replace his Vodacom Blue Bulls team mate Jan Serfontein in the SA Under-20 squad for the Junior World Championship (JWC).

 

Serfontein, the IRB Junior Player of the Year in 2012 and standout player of last year’s JWC tournament, is currently a member of the Springbok training group, which have just completed a training camp in Durban. Janse van Rensburg represented the SA Schools last year and also attended the SA Under-20’s  previous training camp two weeks ago, as a reserve player.

 

The Junior Springboks travel on Thursday to France where they will defend their JWC title. The JWC tournament will be held from 5 to 23 June across three venues in France.

 

Meanwhile, the Junior Springboks wrapped up their on-field preparations with two training sessions on Tuesday in Stellenboch. The morning field session was followed by a contact session in the afternoon against the SARU President’s XV, who will be in action on Saturday in Stellenbosch against Namibia.

 

The updated SA U20 activities for tomorrow are:

08:00     Gym session at SAS

14:00     Media briefing session (SAS)

19:00    Capping Ceremony (Paul Roos Markötter Clubhouse)
