Athletes participate in water polo challenge
The annual Roedean School South Africa Prestige Cup made a splash in February.
Hosted by Roedean School (SA), the Prestige Water polo Cup is an outstanding fixture on the Gauteng schools’ calendar.
According to Roedean School marketing coordinator Antonia Dorfling, the games which took place from February 19–20, were live-streamed on the SuperSport Schools app, and parents and learners could watch on the Roedean School App.
“This exciting tournament is more than just about winning, it’s about making a lasting impact and leaving a legacy. Each of the top 10 participating schools partners with an under-resourced school to share and pass on swimming and water safety learning and coaching,” SuperSport Schools posted on their Facebook page.
“The winning schools donate their prize money to the developing school’s Learn-to-Swim programme giving the less fortunate an opportunity to grow and build their swimming skills. Well done to all involved in making this a success.”
The final scores of day two were as follows:
- St Stithians College 12–3 Kingsmead College
- Roedean School (SA) 9–1 St Peter’s College
- Reddam House Bedfordview 4–7 St Stithians College
