Hollywoodbets Brand Ambassador Profile: Makazole Mapimpi

Makazole Mapimpi is the latest sporting icon to join forces with Hollywoodbets as he joined the Purple Team in October 2024, but his association with the Hollywood Foundation dates to February 2024.

Known as one of the most prominent South African professional rugby players known for his exceptional skills as a winger. He was born on July 26, 1990 in Tsholomnqa, Eastern Cape, South Africa. Mapimpi has gained significant recognition for his speed, finishing ability, and overall versatility on the field.

Mapimpi grew up in a rural village and played various sports as a child. He started playing rugby at a young age and eventually caught the attention of scouts due to his natural athleticism and speed.

His professional rugby career began in the domestic competitions in South Africa, where he played for the Eastern Province Kings and Southern Kings.

Rise to prominence

Mapimpi’s breakthrough on the international stage came when he was selected to play for the Springboks. He made his test debut in 2017 and has not looked backed ever since as he quickly established himself as Mr Reliable when it comes to his ability to score tries and contribute to the attacking play.

Mapimpi’s success with the Springboks, particularly his contribution to their 2019 World Cup victory in Japan – where he became the first Springbok to score a try in a final – he has solidified his status as one of South Africa’s top wingers across all generations.

“D-Rex” is admired not only for his playing style but also for his dedication to the sport and his resilience in overcoming challenges throughout his career. My relationship with Hollywoodbets is so heart-warming because I’ve always seen how they supported rugby over the years.”

“When we collaborated on the Makazole Mapimpi Foundation with the Hollywood Foundation’s Back2School campaign, that further showed the Purple Brand’s commitment to giving back. I’m happy about this partnership,”

– said Mapimpi, whois currently in the books of Hollywoodbets Sharks, serving as one of the senior players in the Durbanites outfit.
