Garsfontein trumps Waterkloof in 1st XI clashes

Pretoria dished up a tasty menu of hockey on the weekend, including a massive derby between Hoërskool Garsfontein and Hoërskool Waterkloof.
Competition between the schools’ boys’ and girls’ teams was incredibly tight throughout all the age groups and took place over two days.
The Garsies girls’ first team delivered a composed and disciplined performance to edge out the visiting Waterkloof side 1-0.
In the boys’ 1st XI clash, Garsfontein, after a second successive top four finish at the Standard Bank Hibbert Shield, was favoured against Klofies.
It was an intensely contested match, but Garsfontein broke it open in the fourth chukka, striking twice, both through the outstanding Luken Brunette, from penalty corners, to snatch victory.
Despite the losses of their senior teams, Waterkloof enjoyed some success in the junior ranks, where their u15 sides, especially excelled.
Midstream College faced Hoërskool Eldoraigne in league matches.
The girls’ win went the way of Midstream, who defended soundly and took advantage of three chances to run out 3-0 winners.
Victory went the other way in the boys’ game, with Eldoraigne claiming a 3-1 win after going behind in the first chukka.
The Eldos ‘ u16 boys’ side caught the eye with a solid 5-0 win in their showdown with Midstream.
