The ODA recently got to congratulate Ross Vintcent (2020F) on being awarded his International Colours after playing for Italy this year.
Ross is a product of great Bishops coaching at a young age. After leaving Bishops he was recruited into the Italian Rugby Academy, thanks to his mother's Italian roots. This marked the beginning of a remarkable journey for Ross, one that would see him don the blue jersey of Italy.
Ross is pictured above with Dr Paul Murray on the left, and in front of the rugby boards with his name newly added to the greats.
Another 2024 addition to the rugby board, from the same year group, is Sacha Mngomozulu (2020F) pictured below with Ross in a recent post on social media.
