A Rugby boss Mark Alexander has hailed the Springboks for their "simply remarkable" achievements this year.
Under the guidance of Rassie Erasmus, the Boks finished their year with 11 wins from 13 matches, while Pieter-Steph du Toit was on Sunday named World Rugby's Player of the Year for a second time.
He also won the award in 2019.
Other Bok players were in the running - Cheslin Kolbe and Eben Etzebeth, along with Ireland's Caelan Doris.
Seven Bok players were also named in a Dream Team for 2024 - the trio of Du Toit, Etzebeth and Kolbe as well as Ox Nche (prop), Malcolm Marx (hooker) and the centre pairing of Damian de Allende and Jesse Kriel.
