Jordan Chait

A composed presence at fly-half, Jordan Chait arrived at the Sharks ahead of the 2022/23 season to add depth and control to the franchise's playmaking stocks. Born on 26 January 1997, the South African number ten honed his craft at the Lions and broadened his experience with the United States Sevens programme before settling in Durban. Chait's game is built on calm decision-making, tidy distribution and dependable goal-kicking, the kind of management skills that steady a backline and keep a side on the front foot. He made his United Rugby Championship debut for the Sharks in 2023 against Munster, marking his arrival in the senior set-up. Whether steering the attack or knocking over the points, he provides a reliable option in a competitive Sharks midfield rotation. As he accumulates minutes in the URC and beyond, Chait's tactical nous and accuracy off the tee make him a valuable squad member for a club with ambitions on both the domestic and European stage.
