Former Sharks Academy and Maties rugby player Alwyn Uys had dreams of playing fro the Springboks but that dream was shattered in 2014 when he was in a car accident that left him paralysed from the waist down.

Naturally Alwyn went through a very tough time and fell in and out of depression, but this man’s mind is way to strong and he turned this around and today he is one of SA’s best para athletes and motivational speaker, he is currently training for the full Iron Man.

Enjoy this inspirational talk with this extraordinary young man.
