Sacha scoops Cameron Hanekom and Wilco Louw to win SA URC Player of the Season Award
The awards keep coming for Springbok and Stormers utility back Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who has been crowned South Africa's United Rugby Championship Player of the Season for 2024/25. On his mantle piece, he already has the SA Rugby Young Player of the Year award. Feinberg-Mngomezulu is one of four South African players who won awards this season, with Cameron Hanekom, Deon Fourie, and Ruben van Heerden also featuring amongst the winners for 2024/25, while the Sharks were also rewarded for their innovative approach to the match day experience. The talented 23-year-old went up against two of his Springbok teammates, the Bulls duo of Hanekom and Wilco Louw, for the prestigious South African award, and his sublime form for the Stormers, in which he dictated play with class and played a key role in the team's goal-kicking, saw him grab the title.

Feinberg-Mngomezulu named SA's URC Player of the Season
Springbok and Stormers utility back Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu added to his SA Rugby Young Player of the Year award for 2024 by being crowned South Africa's United Rugby Championship Player of the Season for 2024-25. Feinberg-Mngomezulu is one of four South African players who won URC awards this season, with Cameron Hanekom, Deon Fourie, and Ruben van Heerden also featuring among the winners. The Sharks were also rewarded for their innovative approach to the match-day experience. The talented 23-year-old went up against two of his Springbok teammates, the Bulls' duo of Hanekom and Wilco Louw, for the prestigious South African award. His sublime form for the Stormers, in which he dictated play with class and played a major role in the team's goal-kicking, saw him grab the title. Feinberg-Mngomezulu follows in the footsteps of former Lions utility back Sanele Nohamba — now plying his trade in Japan — and Stormers teammates Evan Roos and Manie Libbok, who won the award in the last three seasons.
