Sacked Sharks coach Sean Everitt joins Bulls for Currie Cup role

The Bulls have confirmed the appointment of former Sharks coach Sean Everitt on a short-term deal to form part of their Currie Cup coaching team.

Everitt, who was sacked as Sharks head coach in November last year, joins the Bulls franchise to form part of the setup that will help steer the Bulls through the 2023 edition of South Africa's premier rugby competition, the Currie Cup.

Everett's contract will run from mid-February until the conclusion of the 2023 Currie Cup competition.

Bulls Chief Executive Officer Edgar Rathbone said that Everett is a proven winner, with a track record that speaks for itself.

"We are always looking to have the best rugby minds come onboard, to help us advance the objectives of our franchise," he said.

"Sean brings with him, a lot of rugby IP and presents us with the opportunity to have an outside perspective. He has been impressive throughout his career, growing rugby champions that have gone on to entertain the rugby community for many seasons. His appointment is also our way of reinforcing our commitment to the Currie Cup and how well we want to continue doing in this competition.

"We are delighted to welcome Sean to Loftus and do hope that he will enjoy his time with us, and we are confident that the team he joins will collectively come together to bring more domestic success," Rathbone added.
