George van Heerden - Joining the Knights

The former South African Under-19 captain, George van Heerden, is relishing the prospect of joining the Free State Knights as they prepare for life back in Division 1. Van Heerden was in outstanding form for the Garden Route Badgers during the past Division 2 season, amassing 959 first-class runs in just 12 matches. His performances also earned him an opportunity at the top level, turning out for the Warriors in the CSA One-Day Cup. Van Heerden told OFM Sport that, after two successful seasons in Oudtshoorn, he feels ready for the next chapter in his career.
