Puma puts a spring in its step

Springbok rugby stars Percy Montgomery and AJ Venter have signed with global sports brand Puma. Montgomery, who has returned to South Africa after spending the past few seasons in Wales, and Venter, bring much needed experience to Springbok coach Jake White's young squad for the coming test match season. The duo will wear Puma boots on the pitch and Puma "sportlifestyle" gear off it as part of the sponsorship deal. These Sharks players join a host of Springboks in the Puma fold including world rugby's player of the year, Schalk Burger.
