“Recovery is a crucial part of our players’ daily routine – they work incredibly hard in the gym and on the training field and Test matches take a massive toll, so to be able to recover more effectively will give us a major boost.
“The technology provided by Hyperice will play an important role in not only recovery, but also injury prevention as well as allowing our players to perform to their full potential, every day.”
Deon van Wyk, Business Development and Sales Director, Hyperice South Africa, said: “The Springbok team inspires greatness and brings South Africans together on and off the field, and we are proud to welcome them to the Hyperice family.

“Our partnership not only benefits the players, but will empower coaches and medical staff to get players to move better and recover faster in all facets of their training and test matches.
“Sports development and development in women’s sports are close to our hearts, so this collaboration also aligns perfectly with the Springbok Women’s team as they commence their preparation for participation in the 2022 Women’s World Cup.”
