The Springbok Sevens squad will start their 2025 campaign without three of their bronze medal-winning Olympic Games squad, while Blitzbok head coach Philip Snyman also looks to build squad depth in the next four-year cycle.

Blitzbok captain Selvyn Davids and utility forward Tiaan Pretorius, will miss at least the first two tournaments - in Dubai and Cape Town - of the new world series confirmed by World Rugby this week, with Singapore and Los Angeles added to the roster.

Rosko Specman has stepped away from the sevens programme, while Justin Geduld has moved into the Stormers set-up.
