Johan Bardoul (born 16 June 1987) is a New Zealand rugby union player who currently plays as a loose forward for the Coca-Cola Red Sparks in the Top Challenge League. Despite a long and illustrious career Johan still maintains a desire to represent Te Awamutu Sports as the pinnacle of Waikato club rugby
Career
Bardoul started out his senior career with Waikato, however a lack of game time saw him join the Bay of Plenty Steamers in 2013. The Steamers were relegated from the ITM Cup Premier Division in 2013 and then finished bottom of the Championship the following year, however Bardoul's own personal performances were strong. He was called up to the Chiefs wider training group towards the end of the 2013 Super Rugby season to cover for the injured Michael Leitch and won a full-time contract in 2015.
