Len Olivier

Young flyhalf Len Olivier started his career in Pretoria before, in 2007, he moved to the Valke.

A talented playmaker, Olivier represented the Bulls at age-group level, proving himself to be a great talent, but then moved out of the Bull ring in search of regular first team action.

Two strong seasons at the Valke then saw Olivier attract the attention of the Sharks. In 2009 he joined John Plumtree's squad and played both Currie Cup and Vodacom Cup rugby for the Durban-based region.

Olivier then moved to Montauban, in France, but had his time there cur short due to financial issues at the club. Dropped two divisions and forced into a player exodus, Olivier's Montauban deal was cut short. July 1st 2011 will however see Olivier return to France in order to take up a place in the Oyonnax squad. The former Valke No.10 is expected to prove a great bit of business for the ambitious French side and, by joining Oyonnax, Olivier will be teamming up with another World Artists export, prop forward Jan Volschenk.
