Juan-Claude Roos (born 12 September 1990) is a former South African rugby union player that usually played as a fly-half. He last played for the Southern Kings in the Pro14, having previously played for the Blue Bulls and the Pumas and the Canon Eagles in the Japanese Top League.

He was a member of the Pumas side that won the Vodacom Cup for the first time in 2015, beating Western Province 24–7 in the final.[1] Roos appeared in all ten matches and contributed 118 points, finishing the tournament as the top scorer.

He joined the Port Elizabeth-based Eastern Province Kings for the 2016 season,[2] but after financial problems at the Kings, he made the move to Japan to join the Canon Eagles in January 2016.[3]

He retired in 2018 to concentrate on his online personal training company, Activate Me.[4]
