The family had wanted him to attend an English and Afrikaans speaking schools to give him a better chance of having a career.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There he was introduced to rugby, as you know white schools are much popular in rugby,&#8217; she told SABC in a 2019 interview. &#8216;He had white friends who introduced him and he never looked back.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/26\/14\/77034315-12675703-image-a-41_1698328433543.jpg\" height=\"737\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mpinda and Nombulelo Mbongeni pose next to a photo of their son, with his mum claiming his love of rugby came from him attending a largely white private school<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/26\/14\/77034317-12675703-image-a-42_1698328580395.jpg\" height=\"839\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mbongeni is married to Anastacia with the couple having a daughter called Esa<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/26\/14\/77034515-12675703-image-a-43_1698328712994.jpg\" height=\"428\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mbonambi&#8217;s height was seen as an issue in his youth career but he still reached the top level<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He was a very humble boy and he never had many friends here in the community.

Mbongeni claimed the breakthrough helped to remove the risk of going down the wrong path in Bethlehem and potentially joining a gang.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>He was forced to overcome the odds to compete at the top level of the sport, having noticed he was small for his position at\u00a0<\/span>5ft\u00a09in when at the Blue Bulls.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There was never a time when I doubted my ability, even when some of the coaches were telling me I&#8217;d never progress beyond the age-group level,&#8217;\u00a0Mbongeni told SA Rugby Magazine in a 2020 interview.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/26\/15\/77034871-12675703-image-a-50_1698329134402.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>South Africa&#8217;s scrum coach\u00a0Daan Human has said\u00a0Mbonambi is a key part of their puzzle<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/26\/15\/77034781-12675703-image-a-48_1698329030760.jpg\" height=\"455\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mbonambi was a key part of South Africa&#8217;s 2019 World Cup winning squad in Japan<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/26\/15\/77034795-12675703-image-a-49_1698329038531.jpg\" height=\"434\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The hooker played at the tournament a year after fighting a life threatening illness<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;One day, I challenged one of those coaches by asking, &#8216;Why would you say something like that?&#8217; He told me my size would count against me in professional rugby.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It really hurt to hear that, but then I managed to turn it into a positive. When people tell me I can&#8217;t do something it makes me try even harder.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It&#8217;s happened many times over the course of my career, and on every occasion I&#8217;ve just reminded myself that I&#8217;ve been in the situation before.

Now you&#8217;re going to show how tough you are and how strong your faith is.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I think I lost about 10kg in the space of two weeks.
