This past weekend, we successfully hosted the 2nd Annual 6-a-Side Cricket Tournament, aimed at promoting and developing the game, as well as raising much-needed funds in support of our First Team cricket program.
We were pleased to welcome eight competitive teams, each of which played three matches during the group stages. The tournament then progressed to two semi-final fixtures followed by a thrilling final.
Semi-Finalists:
Port Elizabeth Team
Old Unionites
Wheatlands
UHS 1
In the semi-finals, UHS 1 delivered a strong performance with a total of 90 runs against the Port Elizabeth team, securing their place in the final. The Old Unionites also advanced to the final after a commendable performance in their semi-final match.
Final Match:
The final saw UHS 1 face off against Old Unionites. UHS 1 set a target of 63 runs, but in an exciting chase, the Old Unionites emerged victorious with two wickets in hand, claiming the title of 2025 6-a-Side Tournament Champions.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the Old Unionites, a proud group of Union High School alumni, on their well-deserved win.
