We are proud to announce that our top 4 Under 16 tennis players, Jordan Georgiev, Connor Doig, Joshua Crowie and Moeketsi Mokete, won the Gauteng section of the BNP Paribas Rising stars tournament over the past weekend (11-12 September 2021).
During the Round Robin phase, St Stithians defeated Hoerskool Waterkloof, Arthur Ashe Tennis Academy and H and R Academy, thus reaching the semi-finals. St Stithians then went on to beat Tshela Thupa in order to reach the final.
Only the winners of the tournament qualify to play in the BNP Paribas Rising Stars National finals, so there was a lot at stake when we started our final clash against our neighbours, Hoerskool Randburg. Our team displayed grit, strength and resilience as we beat Hoerskool Randburg convincingly in the final.
We extremely proud of our players, whilst their sportsmanship during the tournament was of the highest standard. This wonderful performance bodes well for the future and culture of tennis at the Boys College. #SaintsExcellence
