Despite an early, unexpected loss to George High by 17-12 early on, the Grey High team regrouped to see out the rest of the tournament, beating Ho\u00ebrskool Punt (26-5) and Bridgeton (38-14) in the group stages, they qualified for the knockout rounds in which they didn’t concede a single point.<\/p>\n

Grey beat Marlow Landbou in the semi-finals by 20-0 before flexing their muscles against Strand to bring an end to an exhilarating tournament.<\/p>\n

The host’s honour was defended by two invitational teams while their first stringers were competing at the NWU Prestige Schools Sevens tournament in Potchefstroom.<\/p>\n

The Outeniqua Invitational team did well to progress all the way to the Plate final, but Montagu was a step too far and after a thrilling match, a late score by Montagu secured the 21-15 victory for the visitors.<\/p>\n

The other Outeniqua team competing at the tournament also made it all the way to the Bowl final where they faced Bridgeton.<\/p>\n

Bridgeton won by 40-10 to be crowned Bowl champions, while York was named the Shield winners after a 5-all draw against Union in the final.<\/p>\n

As per the competition rules, in the event of a draw, the team that scored first gets the victory.<\/p>\n

Though they did not make the finals, George High will take pride in being the only team to beat Grey High over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Raymondre Samson<\/strong> delivered a spectacular performance in that game for George that earned him the Player-of-the-Match award.<\/p>\n
