Sibahle Ndiphiwe 'Rabz' Maxwane (born (1995-08-14)14 August 1995) is a South African rugby union player for the Template:Rut Cheetahs in the Pro14 and the Template:Rut Free State Cheetahs in the Currie Cup.[1] He usually plays on the wing.

Rugby career

2013 : Youth rugby

Maxwane was born in Queenstown and attended Dale College Boys' High School in nearby King William's Town, playing first team rugby for Dale College in 2013 and 2014.[2][3]

He earned some provincial colours too, when he was named in the Border squad for the 2013 Under-18 Academy Week held in Durban.[4]

2014–2016 : Western Province

Maxwane joined the Western Province Rugby Institute for the 2014 season.[5] He was named in the Template:Rut Western Province U19 squad for the 2014 Under-19 Provincial Championship, but failed to make any appearances in the competition.[6] However, he did feature for a Western Province Rugby Academy XV in a match against a France Under-18 team in August 2014.[7]

He was in action for Western Province in 2015, making nine appearances in the Under-21 Provincial Championship. He scored two tries in their 50–14 victory over Template:Rut Leopards U21[8] as his team finished top of the log after the round-robin stage,[9] but an injury ruled him out of the play-off matches[10] that saw Western Province crowned champions after beating Template:Rut Free State U21 in the final.[11]

He also joined the South Africa Sevens academy, where he was named in the Blitzboks wider training squad that prepared for the 2016 Summer Olympics.[12]

In April 2016, Maxwane made his first class debut, starting their 2016 Currie Cup qualification match against the Template:Rut Blue Bulls.[13] After another start against the Template:Rut Free State XV,[14] he scored his first senior try in a 27–24 victory over the Template:Rut Golden Lions XV in his next match.[15] He made three more starts and two appearances off the bench in the competition, scoring his second try in his final appearance for the team in a 45–17 victory over the Template:Rut SWD Eagles.[16]

He returned to the Under-21 team, starting all eight of their matches in the 2016 Under-21 Provincial Championship. He scored one try against the Template:Rut Blue Bulls U21s[17] and two against the Template:Rut Golden Lions U21[18] during the regular season to help Western Province finish top of the log.[19] He scored a decisive try in a 26–23 victory over Template:Rut Free State U21 in the semi-finals[20] and his fifth of the season in the final, where his team fell just short, losing 34–38 to the Golden Lions.[21] He finished as his team's top try scorer, and just one behind the top try scorers in the competition, the Template:Rut Leopards U21s' Elden Schoeman and the Template:Rut Sharks U21s' Tristan Blewett,[22] and was also named the team's best back of the season at the annual awards ceremony.[23]

2017–present : Bulls

At the end of the 2016 season, the Pretoria-based Template:Rut Blue Bulls announced that Maxwane would join them for the 2017 season;[24] he was subsequently also included in the Template:Rut Bulls Super Rugby squad for the 2017 season.[25]
