The De La Salle Gradebusters were this year’s overall winners, Team Whomp got second and Standard Bank’s Team “Failure Is Not An Option came in just 30 seconds behind.
Organisers say it looks like the event has raised around £15,000, money that will go towards the development of the charity’s Clubhouse, a drop-in facility for Islanders dealing with drug or alcohol issues.
