Jacques Botha, a stalwart of N Tvl and Coelacanths waterpolo passwed away on the night of Saturday 28 January 2023.
Deepest condolences to Jacques’ family and his fellow Coelacanths team mates.
May his dear soul rest in peace.
Another stalwart of Masters and Old Eds waterpolo has joined the team in the sky.
Graeme – affectionately known as Dopie passed away from a heart attack on 23 July 2022.
RIP Graeme.
Sadly Bruce was taken by a great white whilst swimming at Plett on 28 June 2022 and unfortunately he did not survive the attack. He was an avid waterpolo player who played for Wanderers and then Wahoo. In addition, he was also a guy who loved his swimming and would always try and get in the extra game or do some extra lengths swimming. His enthusiasm, jovial personality and always wanting-to-play-a-game will be missed by all.
On behalf of all the SA Masters Waterpolo players we express our deepest sympathies to Bruce’s family and friends.
RIP dear friend

Willie Nobby Clark passed away from multiple organ failure.
He played his polo for Edenvale and was a great forward with a crafty left hand. Completed 10 Masters before heart problems preventing him from playing. Even after his playing days he would still frequent the Edenvale pool, watch some games and enjoy a beer or two afterwards chatting to his old mates.
The Masters community extend their condolences to the Clark family on the loss of Willie.
His funeral will be held on Tuesday 10th November 2020. Time 14h00. At St James Presbyterian Church, 3 Oxford Road, Bedford Gardens, Bedfordview 💔
Rest in Peace Big Guy.

Just got the tragic news that Vaughan McClaren was killed in a car accident in White River yesterday.
Vaughan was a staunch Masters player of any years before he lost interest and inclination – he had joined us on a few overseas Masters tours.
His dry humour and wit will be missed by all who knew him, I will pass on the condolences of all Masters players around the country, to his Family and Friends.
RIP Vaughan

Neville Clarence
