Louis Johannes Koen (born 7 July 1975 in Cape Town , South Africa ) is a South-African rugby union player who played for the Springboks , until 2003, when he moved abroad following the World Cup .
Effective at either fly half or full back, his career began with Western Province , before his move to the Lions and later the Bulls . He was part of the Western Province team that won the Currie Cup in 1997 , contributing immensely with his accurate goal kicking. It was this dependable boot that led to his recall to the Springbok team in 2003 after a two-year absence, but following a difficult tournament[1] Narbonne in France. After two years dogged by injury, Koen moved back to Western Province as only the second full-time kicking coach in South Africa.[2] In 2010 he was recalled out of retirement to play one Currie Cup First Division match for the Boland Cavaliers against the Valke .
