Grey College kondig met trots aan dat Wessel du Plessis, oud‑leerder en voormalige 1ste XV‑afrigter, die rol van direkteur en Hoof van Rugbyaangeleenthede gaan vervul.
’n Trotse Grey‑alumnus
Du Plessis het in 2002 aan Grey gematrikuleer en was deel van ’n onoorwonne 1ste XV‑span. Sy verbintenis met die skool het in 2006 begin. Hy was toe die o.16A‑span begin afrig, en in 2010 het hy sy loopbaan as onderwyser voortgesit.
Uitstaande afrigtingsloopbaan
Van 2014 tot 2020 was hy die 1ste XV‑afrigter. Hy het in daardie periode ’n merkwaardige rekord behaal: 110 wedstryde, waarvan 100 oorwinnings, 3 gelykop en slegs 7 nederlae. Daarna het hy sy kundigheid by die Blou Bulle‑maatskappy uitgebrei.
’n Terugkeer vol betekenis
Grey College verwelkom hom terug by sy alma mater. Die skool glo dat sy ervaring en toewyding ’n nuwe era van rugby‑uitnemendheid sal inlui.
