Jaythen Orange, a lock forward, has been selected for the South African under-20 Springbok squad for the Sanzaar Under-20 Rugby Championship, which begins on April 27. Orange's former schools in Windhoek have praised his achievement. He debuted in the 2026 Young Guns campaign and was later promoted to the University of Johannesburg's first team, where he reached the semi-finals of the FNB Varsity Cup. The article notes the competitive nature of South African rugby and suggests that Orange could still represent Namibia in the future, as rugby players can change allegiances. It also highlights the need for Namibian rugby to rebuild and expose young talent to well-funded competitions like those in South Africa.
