During the global suspension of rugby during the COVID-19 pandemic, Springboks winger Cheslin Kolbe has been working with the Be The Difference Foundation while back in South Africa.
The Rugby World Cup winner has recently shared photos of what he has been doing with the foundation in Cape Town, which has largely been delivering food over the past few weeks.
The Toulouse winger has been in his homeland since March, after travelling back during the Top 14 break. During that time the French league was suspended due to the outbreak of the virus, and has subsequently been abandoned, but the winger has put his time at home to good use.
Next season’s Top 14 campaign is set to begin in September, so the 26-year-old will have to return to southern France for preseason training in the near future. Kolbe recently wrote on Instagram:
“I was supposed to be in France during this time, however, I believe there was a purpose for me being in Cape Town during this lockdown.”
Kolbe has also been joined over the past weeks by his RWC winning captain Siya Kolisi, who himself has been busy during this period with the Kolisi Foundation.

After their triumph in Japan, the two are not only superstars of South African sport, but world rugby.
