The Carleton Lloyd Stand was officially opened by Martin Barker, Headmaster of RBHS, on 29 May 2009.  Guests, boys and staff were addressed by John Benn (E54) former Chairman of the Old Boys' Union and now a trustee of the Carleton Lloyd Educational Trust.

 

 

 

Carleton Lloyd (E1927) was a great supporter of Rondebosch sport, in particular rugby and cricket, and the Carleton Lloyd Educational Trust was established on his death.  During his lifetime Mr Lloyd proposed the construction of a stand overlooking Rugby A.  The stand is accordingly a memorial to him and acknowledges the tremendous contribution he made to Rondebosch on establishing the trust.

We thank the trustees for this magnificent new facility, and in particular acknowledge the leading role which Prof Tinkie Heyns had in ensuring that the stand was constructed.

Following the ceremony the Bosch Rugby Supporters' Club hosted an informal function where former British & Irish Lions player Roger Young and former Springbok Rob Louw gave their views on the Lion's tour of South Africa.
