The son of South Africa's 2007 Rugby World Cup-winning coach, Jake White, Wesley is quickly making a name for himself in England.
White attended Bishops College in Cape Town and represented the school’s 1st XV as a flank in 2013, while he also played for the Western Province U18 team against Montpellier’s junior team as a schoolboy.
After school, he moved to Durban in 2014 and played for the Sharks U19 team, where he was moved to hooker. The following year, White had his first stint overseas, when he joined France Pro D2 side Montauban, before he moved to the USA to study at Lindenwood University in Missouri.
White would spend three years in the States between 2016 and 2019, where he was a two-time Collegiate Rugby Championship winner and trained with the USA Eagles sevens team.
He also played for MLR side Austin Herd and joined the Jersey Reds in 2021 scoring a try in the third minute of his first start for the Club.
