Pieter Kuyper Albertyn (27 May 1897 – 7 March 1973), known as "PK" or "Pierre", was a South African rugby union player and 15th captain of the South Africa national rugby union team.
During his studies he represented the Maties on the rugby field and played mainly wing, where he was able to utilize his great speed.
In this match he injured his knee in such a way that it threatened to end his rugby career.
In October 1920, Albertyn went to Guy's Hospital, London to study dentistry and on his return to South Africa in June 1923, he settled in George where he practiced as a dentist.
[2] Before the 1924 tour of the British Islands to South Africa, the Sprinbok selectors held trials after which a provisional team was selected.
