Hendro Scholtz (born Bethlehem, Free State, 22 March 1979) is a former South African rugby union player and currently the head coach at Varsity Cup side UFS Shimlas.[1][2]

Career

He was first included in the Free State Cheetahs squad in 1999 and remained at the team until 2010. He had a short spell at the Bulls during the 2001 Super 12 season, but played for the Cheetahs' Super Rugby team the Cats from the following season. This also culminated in a call-up to the Springboks and he was included in the team for the 2003 Rugby World Cup.

He played for the Cats until 2005, when Super Rugby expansion lead to the Lions and Cheetahs each getting entry into the tournament, with Scholtz playing for the latter.

After more than a decade at the Cheetahs, he had short spells in Europe at Agen and Rovigo before returning home to South Africa.

He was a surprise call-up to the Free State Cheetahs team in 2012, coming out of semi-retirement to represent them in the 2012 Currie Cup Premier Division.

In 2013, he was appointed as an assistant coach at UFS Shimlas.[3]
