Jacques Marais is a hooker in the Hollywoodbets Sharks' Currie Cup structures. He was named in the Sharks' squad for the 2025 Currie Cup, appearing in matchday 23s during that campaign - including the bench for the Round Two trip to the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld - and competing for the No 2 jersey alongside Bryce Calvert.
He has remained part of the Sharks XV set-up into the 2026 season, with the Currie Cup serving as the proving ground for the Sharks' emerging front-rowers.
The 2026/27 campaign offers Marais the chance to stake a firmer claim on regular senior minutes.
