Yuseph Williams 'Boela' Abrahams (born 23 July 1988) is a South African rugby union player,[1] currently playing with the Template:Rut SWD Eagles.

He started his career playing for the Template:Rut Griffons at youth level, before making the squad in 2007. In 2009, he joined the Template:Rut Eastern Province Kings and was named in their squad for the 2011 Vodacom Cup season.

He was released at the end of 2011 and joined Template:Rut Maties for the 2012 Varsity Cup, but rejoined the Kings a few months later on a two-year deal.[2]

He joined Welkom-based side Template:Rut Griffons in 2014. He was a key member of their 2014 Currie Cup First Division-winning side. He played in the final, scoring a try and kicking a decisive drop goal in the last ten minutes of the match to help the Griffons win the match 23–21[3] to win their first trophy for six years.[4]

A few days later, Abrahams was invited to join a Springbok training camp prior to their end-of-year tour to Europe.[5]
