This is a moving story of the rise to fame from humble beginnings
of one of South Africa’s most popular rugby stars, written
specifically for young readers.
Early on in 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 High
School. 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 Africa’s sporting legends as they set out on their journeys
to becoming national and international stars.
"God's Country," is the best way to describe Inverness, during the
'60s. If was a safe place filled with wonder and natural beauty.
While reading Inverness; The Barefoot Years, take a break and close
your eyes. See if you can remember chasing lightning bugs at dusk
or the smell after a spring rain. Can you still hear the whistle of
the midnight train or remember running barefoot on the school play
ground. I hope this book brings you a flood of great childhood
memories. If I had one wish it would be to turn back the hands of
time so our children or grandchildren could live as we did, a
carefree, innocent childhood.
