Biography

Fanie de Villiers , national cricket hero and well known television personality, established himself as a South African sports hero with his winning match performance against Australia in Sydney in 1993/4. Fanie went on to play international cricket until he retired in 1998. Better known a 'Vinnige Fanie', he is no stranger when it comes to working hard for success and overcoming adversity.

Having grown up in Vereeniging far away from traditional school cricket structures, he practiced hard and bowled his way into the Northern Transvaal team while training as a teacher in Pretoria. Since retiring from international cricket, Fanie commentates on television and performs Master of Ceremony duties at golf days and corporate functions.

Fanie now delivers presentations entitled 'Reaching Your Peak' in which he uses his vast experience as a sportsman and team player together with humorous stories to illustrate the pertinent points of the acronym PEAK - Passion, Enthusiasm, Attitude, Knowledge - to ensure success.
