\"NewsGGlenwood\"Glenwood High School managed to finish the second edition of the World Schools Festival<\/strong> in Stellenbosch unbeaten thanks to a 33-10 victory over the Africa Pacific Dragons.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Green Machine<\/strong> would’ve bagged an even more comfortable victory over the Dragons, but fatigue from playing their fourth match in seven days was clearly starting to take its toll. <\/span><\/p>\n

It will be some tired, but happy Grasshoppers returning back to Durban for the second term next week. Glenwood also managed two victories during the Wynberg Boys’ High Festival<\/strong> over King Edward VII (48-36) and San Isidro of Argentina (33-31). <\/span><\/p>\n

Scrumhalf, Nico Steyn<\/strong>, scored another brace of tries against the AP Dragons to finish the festival with four tries in total. Steyn is without a doubt one of the players to watch out for in Glenwood’s team. <\/span><\/p>\n

Winger Martino van Wyk<\/strong> must have cemented his place in Glenwood’s starting line-up after yet another impressive performance. The AP Dragons’ inside centre, David Kalekale<\/strong>, scored his side’s only points via two tries. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kalekale’s midfield partner, Zion Tanielu<\/strong>, was shown a red card after executing a spear tackle. The World Schools Festival’s rule that if a player receives a red card he could be replaced with another player after 12 minutes of play was also implemented for the first time due to Tanielu’s dismissal. <\/span><\/p>\n

In the opening match, the Western Province Invitational came out on top by 33-30 against the Zambezi Steelers in a see-saw battle. The home side led 19-17 at the break and only trailed once in the match.<\/span><\/p>\n

This was just after half-time when the Steelers’ eighthman, Matthew Oworu, streaked over the tryline for his second try of the match. Owura and the fullback, Tinashe Hombiro, could feel more than happy with their performances on the day. <\/span><\/p>\n

For WP Invitational it was once again their flyhalf, Mikyle Vraagom, who impressed with a well-rounded performance. The flanker Michael Beyers also deserves a mention after being sin-binned he return by scoring a valuable try. <\/span><\/p>\n
