Even in the days when he had to endure hunger‚ months of unemployment‚ financial collapse and complete uncertainty about his rugby career‚ Gqoboka dutifully looked after his parents‚ supported his sister and brother and a young boxer in whom he believed.
The number represents a lot for the loosehead prop and rising Springbok front-row prospect as it also stands for what Gqoboka considers to be his main priority in life - fatherhood..Gqoboka was born near Mount Frere in the Eastern Cape and is now the father of two boys‚ a 12-years old and another aged 19 months.
This is why he encourages fans to register themselves and their sons for the father and son campout at Loftus Versfeld from 28-29 March. "The Bulls are a family-orientated union and we all know how important the relationship between a father and son is. Your father is your immediate hero‚" said Gqoboka.
"There are a lot of things you need to teach them‚ and some uncomfortable conversations in our culture that you need to have with them. But as a modern-day father you need to have these conversations."
