Local Stanford Teen Represents South Africa in Azerbaijan Canoe Race

Sakhe Tshayela is back home in Stanford after an incredible journey to Azerbaijan, where he proudly represented South Africa in both K1 and K2 canoe races.

While he didn’t bring home a medal, Sakhe returned with something even bigger – experience, pride, and inspiration. His story reminds us that sport isn’t just about winning, but about growth, teamwork, and chasing your dreams.

Well done, Sakhe, you’ve made your community proud!
