Ulster's versatile back-three player Louis Ludik has announced his retirement from professional rugby after seven years with the northern province. The 34-year-old South African moved to Belfast from Agen in 2014 and has gone on to play 112 games for Ulster. Ludik enjoyed spells at home with the Lions and Sharks before he moved to Europe and spent a season in France until his arrival in Ulster. Ulster head Coach, Dan McFarland, said: “Louis’ contribution to the province will have a lasting legacy. He is a true Ulster man now, and we are proud to call him one of our own.”
