Athlete spotlight
Vincent Scholtz is a name steadily gaining respect in Namibian school rugby.
As the current captain of Windhoek Gymnasium’s King Price Lions, Vincent has already proven himself to be a natural leader both on and off the field.
From a young age, rugby was more than just a sport to Vincent; it was a family tradition. Encouraged by his father and older brothers, Vincent quickly found his passion for the game. One of his older brothers also wore the King Price Lions jersey, making Vincent’s leadership a continuation of this legacy.
Vincent’s rugby philosophy is rooted in teamwork and mental focus. He believes in building on one’s strengths rather than dwelling on stress, and he never plays as an individual. For him, rugby is a game played together, with your teammates at your side.

Driven by discipline and determination, Vincent lives by the motto: “Hard work beats talent because talent fails to work hard”.
