Rugby Showdown: Jeppe vs. KES for the 100th Time!
Johannesburg is set to explode as Jeppe High School for Boys hosts King Edward VII School (KES) in their 100th 1st XV meeting. This King Price Derby Series clash promises to be a thriller, with a century of history fueling the fire. KES holds the overall advantage, but Jeppe won earlier this season. Expect a hard-fought battle at Collard Field!
Both teams had shaky starts to the 2025 season, but have improved significantly. Jeppe's record is 8 wins and 8 losses against a tough schedule. KES also sits at 7 wins and 7 losses, boosted by a recent comeback win against Pretoria Boys High.
Hockey Heats Up: Grey vs. Grey & Eastern Cape Derbies
The hockey season is nearing its end, but not before some mouthwatering fixtures! This weekend features Paarl Gimnasium vs. Paarl Boys' High and SACS vs. Paul Roos Gimnasium. However, the clash of the weekend is undoubtedly Grey High School vs. Grey College in Gqeberha.
Grey College travels to Gqeberha, aiming to defeat one of their oldest rivals. Last year, they secured a narrow 1-0 victory. This year, a new-look Grey College, led by coach Dallan Phillips, will face their brother school. Catch the game LIVE on SuperSport Schools!
