   Emirates Lions playmaker Sanele Nohamba has
been named Vodacom URC Player of the Season 2024 following a fantastic campaign
with the Johannesburg-based franchise.

The award was open to any player from one
of the four South African franchises, and forms part of the annual SA Rugby
Awards, with the winner determined by votes from the South African media, the
four South African franchise coaches, and Springboks head coach, Rassie
Erasmus.

Nohamba edged out Vodacom Bulls duo
Kurt-Lee Arendse and Cameron Hanekom in winning the coveted award.

The 25-year-old played all 18 regular
season games for the Emirates Lions, who just missed out on a spot on the
Play-Offs on the final day.

He scored two tries, racking up 117 points
in total with 31 conversions, 14 penalties, and one drop-goal slotted over bar.

Nohamba also made 462 metres, with seven
try-assists, and 19 defenders beaten in an excellent all-round season.
