Robert Du Preez

A physical fly-half with gifted hands and feet, du Preez learnt his rugby at Kearsney College before being selected for the Sharks U18 & U19 teams in 2011.

His graduation into Sharks senior rugby came in 2013 when he played in the Vodacom Cup, with strong performances earning him a call up to the South African U20 team which took part in IRB Junior World Championships. Du Preez featured in all of the Sharks' 2018 Super Rugby matches and helped the side win the Currie Cup before joining Sale Sharks on a short term deal.

He returned to Durban ahead of the 2019 Super Rugby season before agreeing to a three-year deal with Sale Sharks, whom he joined following the conclusion of the 2019 season.
