This year, the 34th edition of its annual Sports Festival, the school has brought out an app with even better functionality. The app offers festival-goers the opportunity to engage with the festival digitally. Among other things, users can select fixtures to add to a personalised schedule, predict scores, and view player, coach, and referee profiles.
Tickets for the U18-only events, called Free the Night and Free the Night 2.0 are available at www.freethenight17.co.za. Tickets cost R40 per festival day.
