Hans Neethling

I’m Hans Jurie Neethling from Malmesbury, South Africa. Hockey has been my passion since childhood, leading me to Paul Roos Gymnasium and later Stellenbosch University, where I completed a BCom in Management Accounting. I’ve represented South Africa at every junior age group, the Junior World Cup(where I was top field goal scorer) and made my senior debut against the Netherlands. Most recently, I was part of the historic 2025 Indoor World Cup team, the first African side to win a medal.
