Senior Tennis Tournament in Burgersdorp – Results

This past Friday morning, 7 February, Union High School’s Top 4 senior boys’ and girls’ tennis players set off for the Van Niekerk and Koen Tennis Tournament in Burgersdorp.

Over the two days that followed, the team faced off against competitors from Middelburg, Burgersdorp, De Aar, Cradock and Hoërskool Jim Fouché.

Upon arrival, the team was relieved to find the courts completely dry. Double and mixed doubles matches commenced almost immediately.

The players showcased remarkable stamina, achieving four more wins against Burgersdorp (40-16), Jim Fouché (32-24) and Cradock (35-21).

Unfortunately, the competition proved tough against De Aar, resulting in a loss of 24-32.

The next morning, the players were once again relieved to find that the courts were dry enough for matches to start at 07:30. The boys had two remaining doubles matches against the second teams of Burgersdorp and Jim Fouché. They triumphed over Burgersdorp, winning 12-2, but faced defeat against Jim Fouché, losing 5-9.

This achievement earned them a spot in the semi-finals, where they faced Jim Fouché again. Unfortunately, Union lost this round by a narrow margin of eight games. However, due to their strong performance in the previous day’s matches, they advanced to the final round against De Aar.

The players had to start their matches immediately without a warm-up, which, combined with high stress levels, led to poor decision-making and unnecessary mistakes. De Aar ultimately claimed the trophy, winning four out of the six matches played in the final round.

Well Done To UHS 1st Hockey Girls

This past weekend, Union High School’s 𝟭𝗦𝗧 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗠 𝗛𝗢𝗖𝗞𝗘𝗬 𝗚𝗜𝗥𝗟𝗦 proved that they are not just athletes – they are leaders dedicated to making a positive impact in their community.

Rather than waiting for donations to come their way, these exceptional young women took matters into their own hands by organising a plastic bottle collection and recycling initiative. Their efforts not only aim to raise funds for upcoming tours but also contribute to cleaning up our beloved town.

While many were enjoying the weekend, the hockey girls were busy showcasing their commitment to both their sport and the environment.

(Even those representing Union in tennis at the Burgersdorp tournament joined in the effort, bringing back bottles in a true show of teamwork and dedication.)

But the effort doesn’t stop there! The hockey team is now issuing a challenge to the Graaff-Reinet community: can you match their incredible commitment to raising funds and cleaning up the environment? Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a difference and helps both the team and the planet.
