Lodewyk de Jager is a South African rugby union player, currently playing with the South African national team and the Template:Rut Bulls in Super Rugby.[1] He usually plays as a lock.

Career

He played at youth level for the Template:Rut Leopards and also played for Potchefstroom-based university side Template:Rut NWU Pukke.

In 2012, he was included in the Leopards' Currie Cup squad, but failed to make an appearance. Yet, his performances in the 2012 Under-21 Provincial Championship earned him a move to the Template:Rut Free State Cheetahs and he was included in the Template:Rut Cheetahs final squad for the 2013 Super Rugby season.[2]

He joined the Pretoria-based Template:Rut Bulls on a one-year deal for the 2017 Super Rugby season.[3]

Representative rugby

In May 2014, De Jager was one of eight uncapped players that were called up to a Springbok training camp prior to the 2014 mid-year rugby union internationals.[4]
