RONDEBOSCH BOYS’ HIGH SCHOOL

Junior World Rowing Championships

We are incredibly proud of Sasha Mosig (E’22), and his coach Bevan Stephens (current head coach of Rondebosch Boys’ Rowing), who competed in the Junior World Rowing Championships, held in Varese, Italy from 27-31 July 2022. Sasha was selected for the Single Scull Boat Race - traditionally, the most competitive boat class to compete in at the event, with over 29 nations sending their best rowers to compete. Sasha drew a very challenging heat, which left him to face up against 4 of the best European juniors (3 of whom were in the top 4 at the European Junior Rowing Championships). Sasha put together a fantastic race, with a late surge to the line as the fi nal decider between 5 boats, all within a second of each other. Sasha fi nished in 5th, with a personal best time of 7:06:57. Sasha’s fi nal race was commanding, where he took the lead from start to fi nish. A great way to reconcile the tour, where Sasha received numerous compliments from the commentators. Sasha is also ranked the 13th fastest U19 sculler in the world and has developed an international reputation for being a fi erce competitor with explosive fi nishing pushes that often take the other world-class contenders by surprise! Congratulations, Sasha!

The RBHS Inter-house Public Speaking Competition was held on Tuesday evening, on the second day of English Week.

Rondebosch 200th Rugby Derby!

The fi rst record of any competitive RBHS rugby match was in 1904 and our opponents then were Bishops - the score was 3-3. The fi rst offi cial Bish-Bosch derby was played in 1911. Well over a century later the derby is the biggest and most anticipated sporting event at Rondebosch Boys’ High School with thousands of spectators supporting from the stands and watching the streaming services. The records refl ect that the two schools’ First XVs have played each other 199 times, Rondebosch winning 79, Bishops 101 and with 19 draws – 9 of these were 3-all. The average point difference is merely 3.6. Rondebosch won 6 of the last 10 encounters with 1 draw. Rondebosch did not lose in 22 matches from 1962 to mid-1973, and Bishops’ longest unbeaten run was from 1986 to 1993 (16 matches). 22 Bosch teams have done the double of winning the home & away fi xtures – the fi rst in 1944 and most recently in 2017. A greatly respected and valued tradition is that the Rondebosch First XV mostly plays in blue against all other opposition, but when they run through the schoolboy tunnel onto The Tinkie Heyns Field they are kitted in white jerseys and Bishops in blue. Although there is intense rivalry on the fi eld, both schools have considerable pride in having each other as traditional rivals, and the convivial spectator interaction after matches, irrespective of the result, is a unique feature of the friendship between Rondebosch and Bishops extending well over 100 years. The rivals at school often become lifelong friends as Old Boys of the two neighbouring schools.
