We congratulate the following Bishops rowers on their outstanding achievements this season.

At the recent Senior Rowing Championships, held at the end of April, Bishops had the largest number of rowers selected to represent the Western Cape of any school in the province — a testament to the strength and depth of our rowing program.

 

Selected for Western Cape U16:
Oscar Weldon
Roman Waltman
Edward Potgieter
Adam Carter 
David Traill

 

Selected for Western Cape U19 and awarded Half Provincial Colours:
Matthew Maurel 
John van der Watt

 

Congratulations go to Ben Redfern, who was selected for the South African Schools U16 Rowing Team. Ben travelled to the United Kingdom, where he raced against top school crews from around the UK and returned with three medals — a bronze, a silver, and a gold — across different events. He also secured Western Cape half-colours!

 

These boys have represented both Bishops and the Western Cape with distinction, and we commend them for their hard work, commitment, and success. Please, can these Gentlemen come to receive my congratulations!
