Jeremy Charles Ward (born 10 January 1996 in Port Elizabeth, South Africa) is a South African rugby union player, currently playing with Super Rugby team the Sharks. His regular position is centre.
Born and bred in Port Elizabeth, Ward attended the city's Grey High School, where he played rugby union and water polo. In 2012, he was included in the Eastern Province Under-16 squad that participated at the Grant Khomo Week tournament, where he played in all three of their matches, scoring two points via a conversion in their match against SWD.
He represented Eastern Province at the premier South African high schools competition, the Under-18 Craven Week, on two occasions – at the 2013 tournament in Polokwane and the 2014 tournament in Middelburg, helping Eastern Province to win the unofficial final of the 2014 tournament for the first time since 1977, beating SWD 25–7. Shortly after the 2014 Craven Week, Ward was also included in the Eastern Province U19 squad that participated in the 2014 Under-19 Provincial Championship, their first season in Group A of the competition following winning promotion in 2013. He started at outside centre in six of their twelve matches in the competition, scoring tries in their 17–13 win over Free State U19 and their 7–15 defeat to Sharks U19, eventually helping the team to finish in sixth position on the log, avoiding the relegation play-off.
