De Jongh embracing leadership role

Queenstown - Stormers centre Juan de Jongh says playing a leadership role in the team has helped him mature as a rugby player, on and off the field.

The past year has been an exciting chapter in De Jongh’s career.

He was given the captaincy ahead of Western Province’s 2014 Currie Cup, taking charge of a young squad. He excelled as a performer and a leader, making a valuable contribution to the Cape side’s charge to the domestic crown.
