Abongile Nonkontwana (born 10 April 1995 in Port Elizabeth, South Africa) is a South African rugby union player, currently playing with the Blue Bulls in the domestic Currie Cup. His regular position is lock, but he occasionally plays as a flanker or eighth man.
He represented Border at primary school level, playing for their Under-13 side at the Craven Week competition in 2008. He also played for them in the 2011 Under-16 Grant Khomo Week.
In 2012, Nonkontwana moved to Pretoria to enroll at St. Alban's College. Here, he was selected in the 2012 South African Schools side, making one appearance for them against Wales in George.
After appearing for the Blue Bulls at the Under-18 Craven Week competition in 2013, he was again selected in that season's South African Schools side, playing in their match against France.
In 2014, he was included in the South Africa Under-20 squad for the 2014 IRB Junior World Championship. He started their opening match of the competition, a 61–5 victory over Scotland, and came on as a replacement in their 33–24 win over hosts New Zealand. He didn't feature in their final pool match against Samoa and was an unused replacement in the semi-final win over New Zealand. He also didn't feature in the final, where England won the competition by beating South Africa 21–20.
