Die ontslape oud-Springbok-vleuel Cornal Hendricks het so te s\u00ea ‘n volmaakte rugbyloopbaan gehad. Hy het sy buiging by die Boland Kavaliers in 2008 gemaak en elders professioneel rugby gaan speel voordat hy na sy eerste liefde teruggekeer en waar hy sy laaste dae op die rugbyveld deurgebring het.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hendricks, ‘n boorling van die Paarl en wat sy ho\u00ebrskoolloopbaan aan die Bergrivier Sekond\u00eare Skool in Wellington voltooi het, is Donderdag (15\u2009Mei) in die ouderdom van 37 aan ‘n hartaanval oorlede.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy ontydelike afsterwe het skokgolwe deur die internasionale rugbygemeenskap gestuur.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hendricks se professionele rugbyloopbaan het in 2008 begin toe hy ‘n kontrak met die Boland Kavaliers geteken het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2012 het hy by die Vrystaat se Cheetahs aangesluit. Hier is sy besondere talent raakgesien en in 2014 is hy in die Springbok-span opgeneem.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy het die Springbokke in 2014 en 2015 as vleuel in altesaam 12 toetse verteenwoordig.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hendricks het ook vir die Blitsbokke en van 2019 tot onlangs vir die Bulle uitgedraf.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benewens sy professionele loopbaan het hy ook graag teruggeploeg in sy gemeenskap deur inisiatiewe soos die Cornal Hendricks-stigting.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die stigting het dikwels rugbyklinieke by veral landelike skole aangebied.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ek onthou nog my skoolrugbydae soos gister. Ek het baie pret gehad, maar ek het groot gedroom,” het Hendricks in Mei 2018 aan leerders by ‘n rugbykliniek by die Newton Prim\u00eare Skool in Wellington ges\u00ea.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Julle is die rolmodelle en leiers van die toekoms. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Gebruik jul kanse in die lewe en julle sal suksesvol wees.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paarl Post het voorheen berig dat ‘n harttoestand in 2015 by Hendricks gediagnoseer is. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

N\u00e1 drie jaar van rehabilitasie en mediese konsultasies het hy in 2019 na die rugbyveld teruggekeer.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hendricks het in Oktober verlede jaar sy kontrak met die Bulle be\u00ebindig om na die Boland Kavaliers terug te keer.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die idee was dat hy sy rugbyloopbaan daar sou afsluit.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rapport<\/em> het die afgelope Sondag berig<\/a> dat die Kavaliers twee maande gelede besef het Hendricks se harttoestand het tot s\u00f3 ‘n mate vererger dat hy gesukkel het om n\u00e1 strawwe oefening te herstel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Rapport het die Kavaliers se mediese span hom n\u00e1 sy laaste wedstryd op 22\u2009Maart teen die Valke in Kemptonpark aanges\u00ea om op te hou rugby speel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ons het gesien hy reageer nie goed op oefening nie en het daarna ‘n volledige mediese ondersoek met hom gedoen. Twee weke n\u00e1 sy laaste wedstryd het ek by hom gaan sit en ges\u00ea dit lyk asof sy toestand besig is om te verswak,” het dr.\u2009Byron Haupt, die Kavaliers se spandokter, vandeesweek ges\u00ea.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ons kon dit waag en hom langer laat speel, maar ek het gevoel dis veiliger om die gordyn oor sy loopbaan te laat sak. Met sy harttoestand soos dit was, sou ‘n spel soos rugby, met soveel onderbrekings, nie voordelig vir hom wees nie. Hy het ‘n jong gesin gehad, ‘n toekoms wat voorl\u00ea en ons het besluit om sy loopbaan te be\u00ebindig. Ons het hom medies ongeskik laat verklaar.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Rapport het Hendricks Woensdagaand by sy huis in die Volendam-landgoed in Wellington inmekaargesak nadat hy van ‘n brandpyn in die bors gekla het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy is n\u00e1 21:00 in die hospitaal weens ‘n hartaanval dood \u2013 minder as ‘n maand nadat hy sy 37ste verjaardag op 18 April gevier het.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022\u2009Sy begrafnis vind Sondag (25 Mei) om 12:00 by die NG\u2009Moedergemeente in Wellington plaas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
