About the campaign

Grade 4 to 7 take on their own #VUSA24.

In partnership with Investec and Bishops Diocesan College, #VUSA24 is a cycle event to raise money for VUSA Rugby and Learning Academy, a registered NPO which creates opportunities for children in the Langa community through structured sport, academic and recreational programmes.

This year, we are once again adding a mini 12 hour challenge for the Prep boys (Grade 4–7). Boys set up teams of up to 12 and elect a Team Manager, a parent or teacher, to lead them through the day.

How it works

Seven things every team needs to know.

01

Build your team

Boys set up teams of up to 12 and elect a Team Manager, a parent or teacher, to lead them through the day.

02

Grade allocation

Each grade has been allocated 2 teams. Additional teams will be accommodated if we are able to obtain small bikes.

03

Keep the bike moving

Prep boys (Grade 4–7) can cycle in any order, for any duration, but the bike must run for the full 12 hours.

04

Fundraise as a team

Each team fundraises together, sharing a BackaBuddy link to raise funds for VUSA.

05

Raise the most, win the most

The team who raises the most will win prizes.

06

Dress up

Get creative and dress your team up for the day.

07

Give back

100% of the funds donated support VUSA's programmes in Langa.

Be part of it

100% of funds donated support VUSA's programmes.

Every kilometre your team's boys cycle helps VUSA provide learning support, sport, meals and psychosocial services to children in Langa. Share your team's BackaBuddy link and help push the total as high as it can go.
