The camp – the first of three before the international season kicks off in June – started with a two-day strategic session with the coaches on Monday and Tuesday, while the coaches and strength and conditioning staff presented their plans and expectations to the invited players on Wednesday and Thursday.
“The camp was invaluable both in terms of developing our structures for the next few seasons and in getting the coaches and players to get to know one another better off the field, especially with the introduction of Jerry , Tony and Jaco to our coaching staff.” “I must give credit to the players for their enthusiasm and excitement to learn how we operate in the Springbok set-up, and for buying into our structures.
The back-to-back World Cup champions will return to the field for the first time since lifting Webb Ellis Cup in France last year on Saturday 22 June against Wales at Twickenham before hosting Ireland and Portugal in the Incoming Series in July. The Boks will play Ireland in back-to-back Tests in Pretoria and Durban on 6 and 13 July, before lining up against Portugal in their historic first Test in Bloemfontein on Saturday 20 July.
