Their struggle is my struggle – Kolisi on backing women’s game

Siya Kolisi, the captain of the South African rugby team, has been a vocal advocate for the women’s game and has shown his support for their struggles and challenges.

In a recent interview, Kolisi emphasized that the issues faced by female athletes are not separate from those faced by male athletes, and that equality and support should be extended to all players, regardless of gender.

“I have seen first-hand the dedication, hard work, and talent that women rugby players bring to the sport, and it is only fair that they receive the same level of recognition and support as their male counterparts,” Kolisi said.

He has been actively involved in promoting women’s rugby and has participated in campaigns and events aimed at raising awareness and support for the women’s game.

Kolisi believes that by standing up for women’s rights and supporting their struggle, he is not only promoting equality in sports but also setting an example for young athletes to follow.

“I want to use my platform as a male athlete to amplify the voices of female players and to show that their struggle is my struggle too,” Kolisi added.

As a role model both on and off the field, Kolisi’s advocacy for women’s rugby has inspired many to join the cause and work towards a more inclusive and equal sports community.

His efforts have not gone unnoticed, and many have praised him for his commitment to supporting women’s rugby and for being a true ally in the fight for gender equality in sports.

With his leadership and dedication to the cause, Kolisi continues to pave the way for a future where women athletes are given the respect, recognition, and support they deserve.
