Springboks captain Siya Kolisi keeps winning.

He's been awarded the African Trail blazer of the year at the People’s Choice Awards run by international news channel E!.

Siya spearheaded the Springboks in the 2019 Rugby World Cup as South Africa’s first black captain and the Bokke came home with the trophy.

The 28-year old rugby star, who was born in Zwide in the Eastern Cape, had a tough upbringing and rugby helped him find a way out.

Taking to his Instagram to celebrate his win, Siya shared the exciting news with his followers.

“Thank you for the love E! African Trailblazer of the Year At E! People’s Choice Awards”.
