Fezakele Raymond Kolisi is heading to Japan, his first-ever trip overseas, to watch Siya, the Captain of the Springboks, bring glory to South Africa!

 

Tokyo, Japan – Rachel Kolisi shared a photo of her father and Siya’s father playing with one of their grandchildren but the post is going viral because she has shared a piece of information that has warmed the hearts of every South African!

Fezakele Raymond Kolisi is going to support his son in Japan; only the trip will be his first overseas trip ever!

The pride of being able to see his son play for the country, live and inaction, is excellent. The country agrees that he chose a memorable time to take his first trip.

Utata has loved rugby all his life and passed that on to Siya. He is Siya’s number one fan and watches every game on his TV at home in Port Elizabeth. However, this game is far too important to miss, which is why he is braving a long-haul flight.

As South Africans, we are all hoping for a win.

Collectively we are putting out all the positive thoughts out there so we can see Siya thrust the Webber Ellis Cup up into the air for everyone in South Africa, including his Dad in the stands.
