Pietermaritzburg Girls High School hosted another successful all girls basketball event in which they ended up the winners by defeating long time rivals Pretoria High School for Girls in the final.
Here is the tournament report provided by Val Fowler who takes time to organise the tournament every year and makes sure that it continues to have the success that it has had over the years:
” Schoolgirls’ basketball is alive and well in some of our schools. The league is in full swing. Voortrekker, traditionally a top netball school, has made a welcome return to basketball. Regrettably, the standard of play and the number of age-group teams is down in many of the schools. Despite these negatives a most exciting and competitive Invitation U19 Schools Tournament was held at the St John’s and GHS courts this weekend, attracting a number of teams from outside of the province.

Open Girls: Pretoria High School for Girls vs. Rosina Sedibane
By Rosemary Leak (PHSG 1st team coach)
We all thought the final would be PHSG against The Glen, however this year; it was not meant to be. I was told how Rosina played their hearts out, gave their very best to beat The Glen and this left me somewhat nervous going into the final.

With four players down I still had an extremely strong team to work with. Continue reading »

PHSG vs. DSG on Friday 6 June at 15h00 at DSG
Pictures by kgothatso
With the league winding down, PHSG had players injured or absent (Lara, Deidre, Jamela, Alexia) that would be the envy of other 1st teams… But with a final against their old foes on their mind, they did well to focus on the job at hand and win this game handsomely. But DSG put up an all mighty fight and their performances have steadily improved all year. They played a man on man game against PHSG and they must be commanded for their attitude throughout the game.
My prediction: PHSG – Actual winner: PHSG
