David Alfred Stewart (14 July 1935 – 22 November 2022) was a South African rugby union international.[1]
Stewart was born in Cape Town and attended Wynberg High School. He played 11 test matches for the Springboks in the early 1960s, mostly as either a centre or fly-half. On the 1960–61 tour of Europe, Stewart appeared in three of the five tests, as the Springboks achieved wins over all the home nations.[2] He later served as a national selector.[3]
