ISIVIVANE is a gelding by Erupt (IRE), out of the Casey Tibbs (IRE) mare Rodeo Sioux. Purchased by Hollywood Racing at the 2023 Cape Premier Yearling Sale Powered by Tattersalls, he was bred by Narrow Creek Stud.
Name: ISIVIVANE
Named: Hollywoodbets Sharks Rugby
Name Meaning: In isiZulu, isivivane literally means pile of stones, which acts as a monument. Travellers add a stone out of respect for the past, for protection on their journey, and for good fortune in the future. At the Sharks, whenever someone joins the Sharks Rugby Union, they add their stone to the pile (which is located at the Legacy Wall at the entrance of Hollywoodbets Kings Park). It brings together a diverse group of players and administrators, and demonstrates a respect to those who have gone before, and a solidarity in intertwined journeys and a motivating vision for the future. This concept promotes the spirit of togetherness among people in society, especially in the concept of Ubuntu. It emphasizes the motto of “what we create collectively is better than what we can create individually.”
