Dr Dean Allen in conversation with “The Class of 1995”

ABOUT

Dr Dean Allen – author, lecturer and historian will be joining Francois Pienaar, Morné du Plessis, Joel Stransky and Os du Randt to look back 25 years, when a victorious rugby team changed a nation. This free webinar is an initiative of the Chris Burger Petro Jackson Players’ Fund – Rugby’s Caring Hands. 

Back in 1995, this historic moment unified a divided nation in sporting triumph, and in the words of Madiba, proved that “Sport has the power to change the world... It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.” This memorable occasion, still fresh in the minds of many will be reminisced and recalled by four rugby legends firsthand.

Questions will be taken from viewers and where possible they will be put to the speakers at the end of the conversation.

Tickets are FREE for this once in a life time webinar but please register/book your place to ensure that you receive a complimentary Zoom link.

May we also invite you to join us in solidarity by wearing a touch of green and gold, eg: either a supporters jersey, a scarf, a beanie, or have our beautiful SA flag with you. Our “kiss-cam” will scan the Zoom room to highlight your best efforts.

This event forms part of the extraordinary fundraising efforts that the Players’ Fund are having to venture into as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic in an effort to ensure that they remain available to their 107 recipients.

We look forward to you joining us in support of this great rugby cause. See you on Thursday evening!
