Tim Young, from Grade 11S, has been selected to represent South Africa at the U20 Men’s Water Polo Championships taking place in Zagreb, Croatia this June. This is not only a remarkable honour in itself, but even more so when you consider that Tim is just 17 years old, making him the youngest player ever to be selected for a South African U20 Water Polo team.

This is an extraordinary accomplishment and a testament to Tim’s dedication, talent, and incredibly hard work. 

We also want to recognize Michael Mafunda, equally young, who has been named as a non-travelling reserve for the same U20 national team. This means he is on standby as a potential representative for South Africa—an impressive achievement that reflects his commitment and high level of performance.
