The mastermind behind the Springboks’ back-to-back Rugby World Cup titles of 2019 and 2023, Rassie Erasmus has returned to the role of head coach until the end of 2027.
He will lead a modified coaching team in the absence of Nienaber, and attack coach Felix Jones, who has left to join England.
Erasmus will be working together with Mzwandile Stick, Daan Human, Jerry Flannery, Tony Brown, as assistant coaches, and Andy Edwards as head of athletic performance, who were key coaching staff in 2023 and whose contracts were
extended midway through 2023 until the conclusion of the 2027 world cup in Australia.
“We are delighted to announce that Rassie Erasmus will take over the reigns as the Springbok head coach once again following his success with the team since 2018, and we believe that with the continuity in the coaching structures and the and the exciting additions, we are in good hands in the ultimate objective of claiming a hat-trick of World Cup titles” said Mark Alexander.
“It is a massive honour to coach the Springboks, and I am grateful for the trust placed in me,” said Erasmus.
The off-field management team will be announced following the team’s first alignment camp.
