Bio

Lizo Gqoboka‘s high school in Tabankulu did not play rugby and he only started playing the sport aged 19 Queensburgh Club in 2009 before joining Durban Collegians Sports Club. He started off playing as a No 8, but eventually moved to prop. He played for the Eastern Province Kings in the 2011 Under-21 Currie Cup and earned a call-up to their 2012 Vodacom Cup squad.

Gqoboka made his first team debut against Border Bulldogs on 16 March 2012, coming on as a late substitute. He earned his first start against Free State Cheetahs a fortnight later. His strong attack will be something to watch and scrum.
