The Springbok Women’s Journey to the 2025 Rugby World Cup: Strength, Heart, and History
This isn’t just rugby. It’s resilience, it’s growth, it’s proof that hard work and passion demand recognition. On Unplugged: Off The Bench, Nadine Roos, Babalwa Latsha, and Libbie Janse van Rensburg share the unseen moments behind their 2025 World Cup preparation — the sweat, the strategy, and the pressure that forged champions.
The 2025 build-up has been precise: structured calendars, tactical coaching, and test matches that pushed every player to perform at their peak. But the most powerful moments aren’t measured in tries or tackles. It’s the day SARU Deputy President Mark Alexander was moved to tears, publicly recognizing the players’ dedication — a moment that validated years of sacrifice and growth.
Facing the Black Ferns XV brought the kind of pressure only true champions can rise to, sharpening the team mentally for the World Cup ahead. And this isn’t just about one team — it’s about the rise of women’s rugby in South Africa, where their stories, struggles, and triumphs are finally being celebrated the way they deserve.
