Ivan van Rooyen (born 1981/82) is a South African professional rugby union football coach.
He was short-term head coach of the Lions team that played in the Super Rugby competition.
Rumours circulated in February 2023 that van Rooyen's contract was up for renewal.
Despite achieving a win rate of less than 40%, his contract was expected to be "more lucrative than John Dobson",[4] who won the United Rugby Championship in the 2021/22 season with the DHL Stormers.
