Hoërskool Grens, the hosts, finished third last year. As much as their team will fight to win, their coach says it’s important that the girls still have fun. 

“The training that you do before the exams is important. As long as they maintain what they trained before the exams. Hopefully, that will help us this weekend” Arlien Myburg, first team coach, told Superschools.

Grens will be on the lookout for Framesby and Despatch, their biggest competitors. They recently faced and defeated Hudson Park High.

These games come as the girls complete their June examination periods. Friday’s matches will start at 08:00 and end at 17:00. Saturday’s games will start at 08:00 and end at 15:00.

There will be 14 rounds where each match consists of two halves.

Each half lasting 12 minutes.

Paarl Gimnasium have been preparing for the tournament from the beginning of the season. With one of their goals, being the top three in the country.

Last year their u14, u16 and u17 teams qualified for the South African Championships. 

“The u18 teams’ level of play is really high. Anything can happen because there is not a team at this moment which is running the show. Everyone is quite evenly matched, but we are prepared to face some tough challenges,” Renske Stoltz, the first team coach, told SuperSport Schools.

“Everyone knows what is expected of them and now it’s up to them to put it out on court” she concluded.

Langenhoven Gimnasium did not participate last year but believes that this year they will be more ready. They have been training four times a week, which includes gym sessions, fitness for preparation and participating in their league games. 

“I have an unbelievable group of children. Although there are only three players who are 18 years old in the first team, I still have a strong team. They have a bond where they look out for each other,” said Charmaine Stemmet, the first team coach.

“There are stronger schools but the last such team we faced was Outeniqua, we lost with only seven points, so we are not far behind them. Support is also important in the team but emotionally they need support from the coach. That is why teamwork is important” she concluded.

Desmond Mpilo Tutu Secondary School will compete in the Top Schools for the first time. Only one team will participate, their u19 team. “The first team is doing very well. One of the best teams the school has ever had” Nkululeko Mhlongo, their netball manager said.

The school hired a professional coach who is very experienced and is confident that their team will do well. Despite the challenges of lack of resources, players such as Ovayo Thumtha Sibekekwane and Bulelwa Nyalela have proven that their lack of resources does not move them. They were part of the Western Cape provincial team.

Kayamandi Secondary School will also be participating for the first time. They have played six games in their league so far, winning only two. The school does not have a designated coach. “We try our best to convince them by motivating them to play, despite their visible challenges,” said Yolani Furunek. 

“Our training is focused on teaching them how to pass the ball, we are focusing on the basics since they do not have a coach,” she concluded.

On Friday, 5 May the u14, u16 and u19 teams faced Diocesan School for Girls. The last time Collegiate’s first team faced Diocesan, the game ended in a draw.

DSG started the game with a fierce attack strategy but Collegiate returned the energy by not holding back on their defense. It was an intense first quarter with both teams shooting the necessary goals to stay in the game.

DSG proved to be a difficult competitor making use of swift ball passes which made Collegiate increase their defense leading to a 4-all equalizer. It was a highly skilled quarter round where one mistake ultimately led to the opponent getting the advantage. DSG ended this quarter on a 7-6 lead.

Collegiate returned to the second quarter with a point to prove by equalizing the 7-7 score.

Collegiate kept the goals coming but DSG wasn’t willing to stay behind and placed more pressure on their attack players in their goal circle.

However, with every goal missed by DSG, Collegiate would use this as an opportunity to advance their lead. The game got more intense in the last half with both teams fighting for the win. DSG’s mishandling of the ball gave Collegiate the advantage and they made sure they used every opportunity to secure their 29-19 victory against DSG.
