The Sportsmans Warehouse Premier Interschools 2024 season kicks off this weekend, 6 April, with another chapter in the epic traditional KZN rivalry between Glenwood High School and Maritzburg College, taking place in Durban on Dixon’s Field.

The first match between the schools was played in 1921 at Glenwood, with Glenwood, then known as Durban Technical High School, recording a 4-0 win.

College, however, dominated the earlier exchanges and lead the series against the Green Machine, thanks to their long-term dominance during the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s.

Since the late 90s, however, Glenwood has been playing catch-up, and they have won eight of the last 10 meetings between the schools.

Premier Interschools has also announced an exciting new partnership with We Buy Cars as their associate sponsor for the 2024 series.

“This collaboration promises to strengthen the foundation for future rugby and netball stars, setting the stage for exhilarating matches and unforgettable moments ahead.

“We look forward to a long and fruitful partnership with the growth of school sports at the forefront,” said Robbie Blair, Premier Interschools Chief Operations Officer.

This mouth-watering derby promises to be one for the history books.
