Ackermann re-signs with the Golden Lions
The Golden Lions Rugby Union is pleased to announce that Johan Ackermann has re-signed a two year contract as Head Coach of the Union’s senior team.
Ackermann, who will coach the Lions outfits in both the Super Rugby and Currie Cup tournaments in 2014, is thrilled to have re-signed with the GLRU and is looking forward to his future at the Union.
“I am honoured to have had an opportunity to commit myself to the Lions for a further two years,” said Ackermann.
“It is a great privilege to re-sign and I would like to thank the management for the faith that they have shown in me.
“We built up an exciting new team this year, which I have been able to work well with, and I look forward to strengthening our relationship over the upcoming years.”
GLRU CEO, Manie Booysen, also expressed his contentment at having secured Ackermann as Head Coach for at least another two seasons.
“The fact that we have re-signed Johan, and offered new contracts to the entire team management and medical staff, not only shows that we are very happy with their performances but also proves the synergy within the Lions camp,” he shared.
“We are all looking forward to a very positive and successful 2014 season and we believe we have a top class management team to lead the Lions to great heights.”
