Siya Kolisi: Vol. 3 by Jeremy Daniel

This is a moving story of the rise to fame from humble beginnings of one of South Africas most popular rugby stars, written specifically for young readers. Early on his life, Siya discovered that rugby could be his route out of the grinding poverty in which he had grown up in the Eastern Cape. He worked hard, made sure he was noticed and managed to secure a scholarship to the prestigious Grey College. But he had to adapt quickly to a world he had never encountered, while keeping his roots in the community that he knew and loved. His hard work and natural ability saw him moving to Cape Town to join the Stormers, trying to break into the Springbok team, and learning to adjust to life at the top of the game that is a national obsession. Siya Kolisi is part of the Road to Glory series, which covers some of South Africas sporting legends as they set out on their journeys to becoming national and international stars.
