Fountain Gate of Tanzania and Ben Sekou of Guinea walk away as the first inaugural championship of the CAF African Schools Football Championship at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium in Clermont, South Africa.
For the final (boys and girls), it was all to play for; concentration levels were high from the first minute of the game as teams were competing for the bragging rights of becoming the first winners of the CAF African Schools Football Championship.
Girls Competition/Final
Fountain Gate School of Tanzania walks away from Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium as the first inaugural CAF African Schools Football Championship of the girl’s competition. Fountain Gate took to the finals against Ecole Omar IBN Khatab of Morocco after defeating CEG De Mfilou of Congo by 4 goals to nil.
Spectators were expecting an electrifying final between these two teams, and they were in for a treat as both teams had proven their dominance throughout the competition. Fountain Gate had the upper hand in the first few minutes of the game as they took an early lead in the 14th minute through Winfrida Gerald.
Fountain Gate missed an opportunity to extend the lead right after, through a missed opportunity by Mary Siyame and a fantastic save by Ahlam Boukhorb, the goalkeeper of Omar who has been fantastic throughout the finals.
Coming into the 2nd half of the match, Winifrida Gerald extended the lead for her team. 8 minutes before the match ended, Irene Chitanda scored the last goal of the match ensuring her team away with the trophy and with USD 300 000.
Runners-up, who also had a great tournament despite losing out on the finals, the young girls of Omar will walk away with their head help up high and with USD 200 000.
Boys Competition/Final
The last match of the day, for the CAF African Schools Football Championship between the home side Clapham High School and Ben Sekou from Guinea. Coming into the final, Clapham High School defeated Sainte Rita by a goal to nil to secure a spot in the final.
A very physical and highly contested first half between Clapham and Ben Sekou. Although ending the 1st half 0-0, Ben Sekou took control of the ball possession using sheer dominance of physicality to their advantage.
Goals in the final game came in the 2nd half as Ben Sekou took the first lead through Amara Keita jersey no.10 who has been one of the exciting players to watch in the finals.
Clapham equalized in the 31st minute through a beautiful goal by Kagiso Maloka who came in the 2nd half of the game. The match final ended in a 1 all draw taking the game into the penalties where Ben Sekou Sylla walked out victorious by scoring all five penalties while their opponent, Clapham missed only one of their penalties.
A very successful inaugural competition that saw 41 countries and 20 000 registered schools to play in the CAF African Schools Football Championship; it all came down to 14 schools from countries to compete in Durban, South Africa for the finals of the competition.
Ben Sekou and Fountain Gate proudly walk away as the first winners of the competition.
However, the beauty of this competition is that everyone walked as a winner as this speaks volume to the long term development and investment of football on the youth ranks and in schools of the African continent.

PRETORIA. – Grey-kollege moes verwoed vir die laaste 20 minute van sy kragmeting teen die Hoërskool Outeniqua wal gooi om uiteindelik met 19-17 in ‘n titaniese stryd van die veld te stap.
Die span van die Rosestad is bekend dat hulle span in die laaste 20 minute met aanvallende rugby tot oorgawe dwing. Die span het egter gewys dat hy ook die teenoorgestelde kan doen.
Grey het teen rustyd ‘n skrale voorsprong van 12-10 geniet, maar dit was die Kwaggas se hoofseun en senter, Ashwin Damons, wat net na lemoentyd met ‘n drie sy span laat voorloop het.
Grey se buitesenter, Benito Goeda, het met sy tweede drie in die 39ste minuut sake weer gelyk getrek. Die losskakel, Ian van der Merwe, het die moeilike doelskop oorgeklits wat op die ou einde deurslaggewend was.
Van der Merwe, Goeda asook die heelagter, Vincent Wolhuter het agterlangs goed vir die wenspan vertoon. Voorlangs was die flank Jean-Henri Smit, sy kaptein en agtsteman, JJ Theron, en die haker, Liam van Wyk, ysters.
Die Kwaggas se heelagter, JT Strydom was gevaarlik elke keer wat hy in besit geplaas was.
Verlede jaar was nie ‘n vloekskoot nie.
Garsfontein se Bere het vir Affies se Wit Bulle in nog ‘n vertoonvenster van Suid-Afrikaanse skolerugby vir die tweede jaar in ‘n ry verslaan. Garsies was met 45-38 op Affies se tuiste baas.
Die Bere het verlede jaar met ‘n sege van 20-19 op sy tuisveld die eerste keer daarin geslaag om die Wit Bulle om te dop. Die wenspan het Saterdag reeds teen rustyd ‘n stewige voorsprong van 33-10 opgebou.
Dit was veral die skrumskakel, Zian Cilliers, was uitmuntend agter die agttal vertoon het. Hy het met sy dartellopies asook op verdediging die Wit Bulle onder druk geplaas.
Garsies se kaptein en flank, Abri van der Westhuizen, was ook uitstaande en het veral voorlangs fisiek ingeklim. Ander uitblinkers sluit in Jason Hugo (heelagter) en Ruan Enslin (linkervleuel).
Enslin het vier keer Affies se doellyn oorgesteek, terwyl Hugo twee keer soos ‘n warm mes deur botter deur Affies se verdediging vir twee drieë gesny het.
Affies se binnesenter, Janco Puchase, het met sy direkte spel beindruk, terwyl die agtsteman, Dieter Schubert, asook die slot Johnathan Eloff harde werk voorlangs verrig het om die Wit Bulle terug in die wedstryd te kry.
Oakdale Landbou het op sy tuisveld, De Eike, net buite Riversdal vir ‘n opskudding gesorg deur vir die Hoër Jongenskool Paarl met 20-17 af te stof.
Die tuisspan se lynstane was uitstekend op die dag en die slot Roy Viljoen verdien hier lof. Agterlangs het Therlow Prins (vleuel) en Kurt Coetzee (senter) blink vertonings vir Oakdale gelewer.
Jeppe het op sy tuisveld vir nog ‘n opskudding gesorg deur die eerste keer in sy geskiedenis daarin te slaag om vir Monument van Krugersdorp te verslaan.
Jeppe was met 30-24 baas. Monnas moes wel sonder sy kaptein en flank, Morné Venter, asook die skrumskakel, Ceano Everson, klaarkom – maar die afrigter Tjaart van der Walt sal dit nie as ‘n verskoning gebruik nie.
Paul Roos Gimnasium het vir die vierde keer op ‘n streep vir Grey High School van Gqeberha verslaan. Die span van die Eikestad het op sy tuisveld met 39-24 koning gekraai.
Die span van Gqeberha was laas in 2017 oor Paul Roos (22-20) baas danksy ‘n stelskop deur ‘n ene Curwin Bosch.
Paarl Gimnasium was vroeg onder druk teen Wynberg Boys’ High. Die span van Kaapstad het ‘n voorsprong van 11-0 geniet voordat Gimmies uiteindelik gemaklik met 33-11 as oorwinnaars van die veld gestap het.
Boland Landbou het sy onoorwonne status vanjaar met ‘n sege van 17-10 oor Stellenberg behou, terwyl Durbanville sy stem ook al dikker gemaak het met ‘n skitterende sege van 35-19 oor Rondebosch Boys’ High.
In die NWU Skole-reeks sal EG Jansen van Boksburg teen Kempton Park in die uitspeelwedstryd om die titel te staan kom. Die Kempies moes sy wedstryd Saterdag teen Eldoraigne wen en het dit toe oortuigend met 49-26 gedoen.
Menlopark se ondersteuners sal ‘n sug van verligting slaak na hy die Hoërskool Nelspruit met 63-0 gekarnuffel het. Die Parkies se haker, Mocke Balt, het ‘n driekuns aan drieë in die sege behaal.
In die NWU 16-reeks sal Piet Retief en die Hoërskool Vryburg sake uitspook om die titel as kampioen. Piet Retief het sy plek met ‘n klinkende sege van 47-12 bespreek, terwyl Vryburg sy halfeindstryd teen Riebeeckrand met 33-19 gewen het.
In die eerste ontmoeting ooit tussen Pearson en Selborne College het eersgenoemde sy stempel met ‘n oorwinning van 25-22 afgedruk.
In die Wesgrow-reeks het Fichardtpark se Leeus gewys dat hul gewis nie as welpies misgis kan word nie. Die Fichie Leeus het vir Jim Fouché met 39-33 in ‘n opwindende kragmeting afgestof.
Voortrekker van Bethlehem sal ook meer as tevrede wees met hul sege van 24-18 oor Hoërskool Trio van Kroonstad. Die span van Kroonstad is die verdedigende Griffon-kampioen.

Grey High School, having taken on Paul Roos Gymnasium just the night before, faced South African College High School (SACS).
The fatigue is slightly evident in the Grey High team, with a notable less urgency to the ball than previously seen.
Grey High relying once more on their wide trough game to make the ball do the work – a clever game plan.
However, SACS quickly noticed the latter and shifted gears, effectively closing in on the ball and using outstanding pocket-picking tackling, causing many turnovers and as a result, many counter-attacks. Grey High loses the match with a full time score of 11-0.
Notable performance to Grey High’s goalkeeper, Adam Brown, who at the 05:20 minute mark of the 2nd chukka, denied SACS from scoring a 3-vs-goalie counter-attack, showing a lifted chin to the end of the game.
Results:
SACS 11 (Litha Kraai (5), Dean Carrick (2), Rowan Davis, Josh Opperman, Mike Royden-Turner, Nick Paxton); Grey High School 0.
There are some big clashes today around the country.
The big one is happening in George where Outeniqua will host Grey College, while Affies will be out for revenge against Garsfontein. Paarl Boys’ High will be traveling to Riversdale to face Oakdale Landbou.

Grey High School and Paul Roos Gimnasium are set to clash in what promises to be a thrilling Premier Interschools encounter on the rugby pitch this weekend at the Markotter Stadium with the first XV’s kicking off at 13:55 pm.
Grey High may have already played in three festivals with six games under their belt, but their 50% victories in 2023 so far won’t be enough to intimidate Paul Roos, who has invested a lot of time and effort into their junior teams since 2019, and these results are starting to show.
Having a strong pipeline provides great depth and an understanding of the style of play that the school wants to implement across the board.
Grey High’s first game at the Outeniqua Centenary Festival was a hard-fought battle against new kids on the block, Stellenberg from Western Cape.
In a nail-biting finish, the men from Grey just prevailed, beating them 22-20. At the Graeme Festival, Grey faced off against Hudson Park and claimed a comfortable 27-7 victory.
Although they drew at home against Rondebosch, Grey came unstuck during the Easter Festival at St John’s College, losing two out of their three games to Boland Landbou and Pretoria Boys High before turning things around in their last match to beat a Golden Lions XV invitational side.
With only three games under their belt so far, Paul Roos may not have as much experience this season, but they have a rich history as one of the premier South African schools in rugby.
The words Paul Roos and rugby go hand-in-hand, as the great man was the creator of the famous Springbok emblem and name for the South African national team.
But this weekend, Grey High will need to improve their game if they hope to come out victorious against the formidable Paul Roos.
Paul Roos has produced the most South African players to represent their country on a rugby field, Juandre Kruger, Willie le Roux, Schalk Britz, Steven Kitshoff, Damian Willemse and Herschel Jantjies to name a few.
Grey High also boasts a proud rugby tradition and record, dating back to the 19th century. They have a number of players who represented the Springboks, including World Cup winning captain Siya Kolisi, JJ Engebrecht, and Curwin Bosch, who have all gone on to wear the Green and Gold.
But enough history, it’s time to talk about the action on the pitch! Grey High and Paul Roos are both renowned for their attacking prowess and hard-hitting defense, and supporters can expect to see some big tackles and lightning-fast line breaks.
Current players to watch from both sides include Paul Roos’ captain and full-back Declan Croy and inside center Philip Groenewald. From Grey High, players to keep an eye on include big lock Likona Sodlaka who is fresh off of two tries against an invitational Lions team at the recent St John’s College Easter Festival. Along with winger Thando Mgidlana who possess’ some pace and skill.
This will be a game to remember, as both teams leave it all on the field in pursuit of victory. Will Grey High prevail with their experience and tenacity, or will Paul Roos show their dominance as one of the best rugby schools in the country and ensure a victory on their home-turf?
The last ten matches have left Paul Roos sitting with a 60% win rate compared to Grey High’s 40% win rate.
The last time Grey High won a match was back in 2017. A famous one point win back in 2014 when they came from a 20 point deficit thanks to the boot of a young Curwin Bosch, might inspire this current crop of players with the thought that anything is possible?
King Edward VII School just hosted their Easter Festival and are wasting no time to take the field again battling Pretoria Boys’ High School this Saturday.

KES defeated Selborne College (20-0) and Hudson Park (55-12) at their Easter Festival but they show no signs of fatigue.
KES will once again be hosting a sporting spectacle this weekend, although this time around it will be a two-sided rivalry between them and Pretoria Boys’ High School.
Pretoria Boys’ High recently faced off against Grey High School and came out on top by 26-19.
The Noord/Suid tournament also granted Pretoria a victory. Their first team beat Durbanville 35-31, having Josh Naude named Man of the Match. Although they lost to Paul Roos Gimnasium, they improved the score of zero at half time to a respectable nineteen, ending the game 19-29.
With these institutions bringing their different approaches to the field, it should make for a great match-up. Although the first team game will definitely be the highlight for most fans, there will be much more rugby taking place.
The teams:
King Edward VII: 15 Tristan Maugeri, 14 Bryce Bennet, 13 Olunje Mehlomakulu, 12 M Methula, 11 Timi Oluwole, 10 Simphiwe Moyo, 9 Ruan van Rensburg, 8 Kebotile Maake, 7 Olwethu Biyela, 5 T Smith, 4 Thomas Beiling, 3 Joshua Aube, 2 Esethu Mnebelele, 1 Lesedi Moloi.

Die Turkoois Bere draf waarskynlik vandag teen Affies vir die eerste keer in die geskiedenis as die gunstelinge op die veld.
Die Hoërskool Garsfontein se eerstespan het verlede jaar vir die eerste keer ooit daarin geslaag om Affies se Wit Bulle te klop toe hy met 20-19 as oorwinnaars van die veld gestap het.
Die etiket as gunstelinge is egter nie so breed as wat die woord lank is nie. Die Wit Bulle sal ongetwyfeld op hul tuisveld soos liewer soos ‘n gewonde buffel wees na verlede jaar se nederlaag. Boonop sal verlede jaar se nederlaag nog vars in alle Affies se geheue sit.
Die Bere sover vanjaar onoorwonne met sy sege van 34-29 oor Stellenberg tydens die NMI Toyota Menlyn Noord/Suid-toernooi wat waarskynlik hul taaiste kragmeting tot dusver was.
Die Garsies het waarskynlik die taaiste Wildeklawer-toernooi wat voorlê met ontmoetings met Grey-kollege en Outeniqua oor drie dae wat wag.
Affies het vanjaar nog net een keer die knie gebuig en dit was in die klipharde tweestryd met die Hoër Jongenskool Paarl (19-26). Die Wit Bulle het egter blink vertoon in hul seges oor Helpmekaar (41-33) en Durban High School (25-24).
Die tuisspan sal waarskynlik vandag hoop dat sy rolmaalbewegings vanaf sy lynstane glad verloop. Affies haker, FC van Rooyen, sal hier ‘n belangrik rol vertolk. Ander sleutelrolspelers vir die Wit Bulle vandag sal Migael de Lange (heelagter), Janko Purchase (binnesenter) en Dieter Schubert (agtsteman) wees.
Dit is veral die tweestryd tussen Schubert en sy direkte teenstander en die Bere se kaptein, Abri van der Westhuizen, wat fyn dopgehou sal word. Albei behoort vanjaar die Blou Bulle se Cravenweek-span na George te haal, een van hulle sal egter na die kant van die skrum moet skuif.
Van der Westhuizen vorm saam met die twee flanke, Divan Brits en Zander Lourens ‘n gedugte lostrio. Lourens is ewe tuis op haker, maar waar hy op sy gemaklikste is, is met sy kop in die middel van ‘n losskrum.
Garsies se buitesenter, Dimitre Erasmus, is altyd gevaarlik wanneer hy te veel spasie gegun word. Hy het ‘n manier om altyd die eerste paar verdedigers op hom te ontglip.
Die spanne:
Affies: 15 Migael de Lange, 14 Stephan Brits, 13 Ivandre van Wyk, 12 Janko Purchase, 11 Righardt Pretorius, 10 Ruben Pienaar, 9 Hendre Schoeman, 8 Dieter Schubert, 7 Ruan Lippoldt, 6 Juan Vorster, 5 JD Hattingh, 4 Johnathan Eloff, 3 Ruan Smuts, 2 FC van Rooyen, 1 Steyn Truter.
Garsfontein: 15 Jason Hugo, 14 Ruan Enslin, 13 Dimitre Erasmus, 12 Heinrich Cloete, 11 Cassie Prinsloo, 10 Nicallen Gabrielsen, 9 Zian Cilliers, 8 Abri van der Westhuizen, 7 Divan Brits, 6 Zander Lourens, 5 James Schnetler, 4 Thinus Oosthuizen, 3 Leighton-Jon Cloete, 2 De Wet Lottering, 1 DA Swart.
Die Hoërskool Upington onthaal weereens hul ou vyande Diamantveld uit Kimberley.
Die skole het tot en met 2015 jaarliks meegeding, met Upington wat slegs hul eerste wedstryd in 2008 kon wen, dit was egter ook die enigste wedstryd wat in Upington plaasgevind het, so Uppies sal hul tuisveldvoordeel weer wil benut.
Ondanks hul rekord teen Diamantveld is Uppies geensins ‘n maklike span om teen te speel nie en het al spelers van die kaliber van Jasper Wiese en Tiaan Strauss opgelewer.
Upington sal hierdie rekord wil verbeter waneer hulle Saterdag om 13:50 weer die geleentheid kry.
Die Diamante het ‘n gemengde seisoen tot dusver, hulle het hul eerste vier wedstryde verloor, wat ‘n geskiedkundige eerste nederlaag teen Fichardtpark ingesluit het, voordat hulle oor die paasnaweek goed terug gekom het om twee harde wedstryde teen Nico Malan (37-2) en Parktown (19-17) by die Standard Bank KES Paastoernooi te wen.
In die vorige wedstryde was Diamantveld se pak voorrye baas teen hul teenstanders, maar dit was in gebroke spel waar die gapings in hul verdediging oopgemaak het. Dit sal interesant wees om te sien of Uppies by hul gewone spelpatroon bly, en die Diamante se voorry probeer aanvat, of aanpas om die tuisspan se swakpunte uit te buit.
Spelers soos Kyle Taute (vleuel), Simon Liversage (senter) en Marco Mathewson (losskakel) moet egter glad nie afgeskryf word nie, en kan maklik die Uppies span straf indien die spel te los raak.
Hoe dit ook al sy, beloof hierdie kragmeting om uiters fisies te wees, met albei skole wat bekend is vir hul kragtige, groot seuns.
Upington sal Saterdag wemel met skolesterre, aangesien Hoërskool Kalahari ook in die dorp is om by Duineveld te kom besoek aflê.
Diamantveld: 15 Marno Greef, 14 Kyle Taute, 13 Valentino Lenge, 12 Simon Liversage, 11 Lehan van der Westhuizen, 10 Marco Mathewson, 9 Dirk van Heerden, 8 Stiaan Loggenberg, 7 De Villiers Straus, 6 Achiles de Jager, 5 JJ Fourie, 4 Diwan Muller, 3 Flip du Randt, 2 De Wet du Plooy, 1 FJ de Fries.
Ander bepalings:
Vrydag – 17:10 – Douglas vs Wildeklawer. Saterdag – 14:30 – Duineveld t. Kalahari.
Die kwarteindstrydrondte van die 2023 NWU Prestige reeks het aangebreek, en van hier af is daar geen tweede kanse nie.

Die heersende kampioene, Noordheuwel, kom Saterdag teen Die Anker te staan in Pretoria op Montana se velde om 15:00.
Hul losskakel, JT Kapank, was tot dusver instrumenteel in hul veldtog om verlede jaar se sukses te herhaal.
Die Anker se enigste nederlaag die seisoen het gekom in ‘n harde stryd teen Rustenburg, anders as dit was die Brakpan seuns nog baie suksesvol teen spanne soos Hugenote (36-0) en Hoërskool Upington (29-26).
Hul losskakel, Benton Giessing, is ook sentraal tot hul aanval, en die wedstryd beloof ‘n goeie kragmeting tussen die twee spelmakers.
Oos-Moot het die tuisveldvoordeel waneer hulle teen Rustenburg speel, om 13:40.
Naas Olivier se Rustenburg span speel vanjaar baie goeie rugby.
Hulle het bo-aan hul groep in die Prestige-reeks geeindig en hul enigste nederlaag die seisoen was teen Die Brandwag van Uitenhage tydens die Oakdale Rugbyweek.
Die Rusties se vlugvoetige vleuel, Lorenzo Snyers het al menigde spogdrieë vir sy span gedruk, en is definitief een om dop te hou in hierdie wedstryd.
Oos-Moot sal die aanmoediging van die tuisskare nodig he om die Rusties te ontstel.
Wesvalia pak vir Heidelberg Volkskool aan op Zwartkop se velde, voor Hoërskool Middelburg en Marais Viljoen mekaar ook daar ontmoet.
Die stryd tussen Middies en Marais Viljoen beloof om een van die hoogtepunte van die rondte te wees.
Marais Viljoen is tot dusver onoorwonne in die reeks, terwyl die Middies naelskraaps teen Jeugland (25-23) verloor het.
Wesvalia se Ben Bierman (heelagter) en Teboho Sekonyela (vleuel) ruil vir hierdie wedstryd posisies, albei die spelers het al goed presteer vir die Klerksdorp span, dit sal interesant wees om te sien watse effek hierdie beweging op hul spel het.
