‘Siya's rise from humble beginnings to lifting that World Cup trophy is the stuff of fairytales.’ - MARCUS RASHFORD. Siya Kolisi, a warrior on the field and an inspiration off it, embodies what can be achieved with inner belief and an indefatigable spirit. As the captain of his team, he is measured and thoughtful, serving as a leader and a source of inspiration for a dynamic South African nation. His journey reflects the trials and triumphs of New South Africa, marking him as a real-life hero. Siya has significantly impacted World rugby, particularly within South Africa, using his status to change lives for the better. In this extraordinarily intimate memoir, Siya shares his story for the first time, detailing his journey from the impoverished Zwide township to leading his nation to victory at the 2019 Rugby World Cup. This narrative goes beyond a mere chronology of matches; it delves into themes of race, faith, and the power of a positive mindset, serving as a reminder that defying the odds is possible. In 2020, in response to the pandemic, Siya and his wife, Rachel, launched The Kolisi Foundation, providing essential support to healthcare workers and delivering food parcels across South Africa. The title, inspired by his mother Phakama, celebrates both his personal journey and his Xhosa heritage.
