Our Top 15 athletes, as listed in the ASA table, participated in the prestigious Noordheuwel Top 15 Athletics Meeting yesterday, where 80 schools were in attendance. Our athletes performed excellently and once again showed that hard work and dedication pay off.
Noordheuwel boasts the highest tartan athletics track in Africa, located at 1 777m above sea level. Schools participated in two divisions: schools with more than a thousand learners and schools with fewer than a thousand learners. This specific competition leg was determined according to the average ASA points of each school's top 15 athletes.
We achieved 14th place in the Small Schools division, where we competed against strong athletics schools such as HTS Middelburg, Hoërskool Dr Malan, Hoërskool Transvalia, Hoërskool Oos-Moot and several others.
