Loose forward Ben-Jason Dixon will remain a Stormers player until at least 2027 following the outcome of an independent arbitration this week.
Dixon sought arbitration to resolve a particular clause in his contract, which runs until July 2027.
The independent process found Dixon’s contract is binding, with no revisions applicable.
‘Committed player’
Stormers Director of Rugby John Dobson said that with the arbitration behind them, he looks forward to seeing Dixon give his all for the team, as he has done throughout his career.
“Ben-Jason is one of the most committed rugby players around and has been a vital cog in our team for some time. With this now settled, we know that he will continue to give everything on and off the field for us,” he said.
Dixon said that with the matter now resolved, he is looking forward to making an impact on the field once again.
“I’m really grateful that both sides had the chance to bring everything to the table through arbitration and get clarity going forward. With this behind us, I’m looking forward to getting back to doing what I love – giving my best for the Stormers.”
Dixon, who attended Paul Roos, has five Springbok caps to his name, the most recent of which came against Argentina in September 2024.
