In this compelling episode of Octafield’s exclusive podcast, we sit down with rising rugby star Nama Xaba for an in-depth conversation about his career, recent move to the Vodacom Bulls, and the challenges he’s faced on his rugby journey.

Nama opens up about his surprising switch from Western Province and the Stormers to the Bulls, sharing candid insights into the frustrations he encountered due to injuries, and how that influenced his decision to seek a fresh start. He reflects on growing up in Freyde, KwaZulu-Natal, where his love for rugby began at the age of six, and how that passion still drives him today.

In a heartfelt moment, Nama discusses overcoming one of the toughest setbacks of his career—a spinal injury that threatened to end his playing days—and how his resilience and determination helped him make a remarkable return to the field. We also dive into his balancing act of pursuing a professional rugby career while earning a degree in Geomatics, highlighting the importance of life outside the sport.

Tune in as Nama talks about his Springbok dreams, his desire to leave a legacy, and the lessons he’s learned from both rugby and life. With a strong focus on inspiring the next generation of players, Nama’s story is one of perseverance, humility, and a relentless drive for success.

Topics Covered:

  • Nama’s early rugby influences and childhood in KwaZulu-Natal.
  • His switch from the Stormers to the Bulls and the reasons behind it.
  • The impact of injuries, including his life-threatening spinal surgery and recovery.
  • Balancing rugby with academics and earning a degree in Geomatics.
  • His Springbok ambitions and vision for the future.
  • Advice to young players about resilience, education, and long-term goals.
