The Stormers have announced significant leadership changes following the departure of former director Dave Wessels and the completion of an equity deal with Red Disa. Johan le Roux, a key figure in the Red Disa Consortium, has been appointed as Chief Executive Officer. Additionally, head coach John Dobson has taken on the role of director of rugby. Le Roux, who heads Fynbos Ekwiteit, is working closely with Dobson and the board to enhance the team's performance. The focus is on turning the Stormers into a global rugby powerhouse while ensuring a sustainable business model for the future.

Dobson is determined to strengthen Western Province Rugby, not just the Stormers, by creating a positive rugby environment and planning for the future.
