This week, in one of South Africa's poorest บาคาร่า communities, work starts on a new rugby field for children to play on.

On its own, the field at Mbekweni Youth Centre near Cape Town might not feel very significant. But for South Africa's first black rugby captain, Siya Kolisi, it's the start of something.

Two months on from his side's World Cup sagame victory, the 28-year-old believes his work off the pitch is becoming as important as his work on it.

It's the celebrations which followed the Springboks' win that Kolisi wants to hold on to. He tells Radio 1 Newsbeat: "I've never seen anything like that in my lifetime. That's why we are doing lots of work to make sure it maintains and keeps on going.

"This is the momentum you've got to use. Hopefully we can do stuff right now that could mean change for decades."
