Coenraad Victor Oosthuizen is a professional rugby union player who plays for Free State Cheetahs in the Currie Cup, Toyota Cheetahs in Super Rugby and was chosen for the Springboks squad in 2010, 2011 and 2012 and made his test debut in the first test against England in Durban in 2012. He went to Laerskool Gustav Preller in Roodepoort for his primary education and attended Grey College in Bloemfontein. He plays in the loose-head prop position, although he can play both sides of the scrum. He boasts surprising pace for a man of his colossal weight. He ended the 2010 Currie Cup season as the Cheetahs top try scorer. Oosthuizen is known for his strong runs and work rate around the pitch but has often struggled in the scrum against the more technical scrummagers. In 2010 Coenie scored a hat trick of tries for the Free State Cheetahs in a Currie Cup game against the neighbouring Griquas team. It is after a stand-out season for the Cheetahs during the 2010 Currie Cup domestic rugby season that Coenie was selected as part of the Springbok squad for the November 2010 tour of Europe. Oosthuizen made his first test appearance on 9 June 2012 against England in Durban.
