🚨 LOST ANKLE BAND🚨

Coach Ruben’s ankle band has gone missing during today’s Midmar Mile. Last seen at the starting point, moments before chaos, elbows, and what can only be described as a full-scale aquatic ambush.

Witnesses report Coach Ruben was “assaulted” in the water at the start of the race while bravely rocking his Lilo & Stitch speedo and inflatable lilo — a sight none of us will ever unsee

👉 If found, please return immediately to Water Orphans
👉 Ankle band may be confused, frightened, and smelling faintly of Jetski petrol pollution

Please share to help reunite a coach with his band 😂

Huge shout-out to our legendary swim instructors and one very strong student who took on the Midmar Mile today like absolute pros
Not their first rodeo – and it showed!

Clocking in at an impressive 30 minutes, they powered through the mile with confidence, grit, and serious open-water skill. This is what commitment, consistency, and a love for the water looks like 🔥

When the boys take over the pool… 😎
Strong arms, loud voices and surprisingly good patience! Our instructors were in full swim-teaching mode this hour and the students absolutely loved it.
Learning + fun = exactly how we like it! 💦
