Action cricket – Action cricket is continuously played, even during the June/July holidays. A total of 12 games were played over the past six weeks and although only two victories were recorded, the boys gained crucial batting, bowling and fielding skills. This has had a positive impact on the boys’ outdoor cricket, with the u-15 and first team recording victories against Vryheid High School.
Top performances were recorded by Ayush Ramdutt, Saleh Raja, Zandre Kotzer, Erens van Rooyen, Taashlin Soobramoney, Jarren Theron, Nikeel Dookie, Bonga, Thabiso, Lwandle and Mncwango. All the other players chipped in with crucial wickets and runs.
