Garsies bag impressive victory over Klofies in Jubilee League

Hoërskool Garsfontein bagged the narrowest of victories in their opening match of this year’s Jubilee League against Hoërskool Waterkloof. Garsies coming out on top by 30-29 on their home turf.

What made the victory even more impressive is that Waterkloof had their two star players Shiane Fouché and Luané Smith back who missed this year’s Absa Wildeklawer tournament due to their participation for South Africa’s Fast 5-team at the Junior Commonwealth Games in Trinidad and Tobago.

After the first quarter the scoreboard was locked at 7-all. Garsies managed to build up a lead at half-time with the scoreline reading 15-12 in their favour. Klofies managed to close the gap to a single goal at the end of the third quarter (23-22).

For Garsfontein their centre, Mariné Lourens, was superb. She will be representing one of the Gauteng teams later this year at the All Ages tournament. Kristen Boshoff (attacking wing) and Chanique Eyberg (goal defence) also played exceptionally well.
