    The former Selborne College student has committed to playing for the Bulls for the next two years and is expected to contribute to their Carling Currie Cup, Heineken Champions Cup, and Vodacom United Rugby Championship campaigns.

    In 2018 he was signed by the Lions before heading to Mbombela to feature for the Pumas in 2019. Not only was he a standout performer for the Mpumalanga side, but his leadership qualities also stood out as he captained the side on a number of occasions.

    “We are very happy to have signed Phumzile Maqondwana for the next two years at the Vodacom Bulls,” confirmed Vodacom Bulls director of rugby, Jake White.

    “He is definitely one of the most exciting players in the country at the moment. We have no doubt that he will add to the depth of our squad and make a great contribution, both as a player and a leader in the upcoming season and beyond.”
