The day was filled with exciting matches in rugby, netball and hockey, where players gave their best to kick off the season strong.

This year, there are even more opportunities for players to show their talents, as Hoërskool Ben Viljoen boasts B rugby teams as well as a third rugby team. This offers more learners the chance to be part of competitive school sport and gain valuable match experience.
