Visual-skills and performance specialist Sherylle Calder has joined the Sharks as a consultant on a two-year contract.

Having assisted many athletes and leading international sporting teams, including the Springboks during Jake White’s successful tenure, she brings a unique perspective to the field of visual motor performance, blending her knowledge of being an athlete, coach and a clinician.

'Sherylle will be helping us with Eyegym to improve peripheral vision and awareness,' said White, now the Sharks' director of rugby. 'She will also be assisting the kickers, which is a massive boost for us, as well as the youngsters in the Sharks Academy who will be able to learn a top range of skills from one of the best in the business.'
