Testimonies heard in the Western Cape High Court have lifted the veil on tense rivalries between two of Cape Town’s most prestigious boys’ schools, as part of a civil damages claim worth R645 000.More than six years after the dramatic water polo fight between students from the prestigious Bishops Diocesan College and Rondebosch Boys High Schools, several witnesses testified before Judge Judith Cloete last week to explain what happened that day.
Stone’s legal team provided a breakdown of his claim, which included medical expenses incurred as a result of the attack, future medical expenses, and general damages. Bishops has requested that if the High Court determines that Ivanisevic is liable for the damages, he be held liable solely. She revealed that the evidence presented to her revealed that bad behaviour by children and parents at the matches was commonplace, with Rondebosch students hissing at Bishops students while Bishops students threw coins in the swimming pool and made comments like ‘Your mother works for my father.’
Wallace told the court that during water polo matches, crowds were allowed close to the pool, and he had always positioned himself near the pool to avoid any problems.
