The Lions Rugby Company would like to take the opportunity to thank all of their staff and players for understanding and embracing the difficult and challenging times that was forced upon them by Covid-19.
It truly takes special people to make a place special and the Lions family will always remain true to what they stand for, even in trying times.
As one of the terms of the Industry Salary Plan (ISP) to deal with the repercussions of Covid-19, SA Rugby introduced a 21-day window allowing for players and staff to cancel their current contracts with immediate effect.

Players Malcolm Marx, who resided in Alberton, Ruan Vermaak, Tyrone Greenand, and Shaun Reynolds will leave the Lions, as well as coaching staff member, Neil de Bruin.
They have been with the Lions for some time and have contributed largely to the team.
Roedolf Straeuli, CEO of the Lions Rugby Company, thanked them for their valuable contributions, some of them having formed part of the Lions since their school-going days.
“There is always a big sense of loss and sadness when we lose family members.
“We wish them well on their journey ahead and thank them for some very special times spent with the Lions,” Straeuli said.
