      The article offers information on the deracialization and transformation of rugby in South Africa. It mentions that South Africa's first democratic president, Nelson Mandela, saw the previously all-white sports as central to national reconciliation, as well as noting a forgotten history of non-white rugby players stretching back to the 1860. Also includes statement of Jurie Roux, South African Rugby Union's (SARU's) chief executive officer (CEO).
