High-flying Urban Academy hosts annual Super Soccer Schools Tournament
Urban Academy, in Gqeberha, has made massive strides on the football field in recent seasons, and, from Friday to Sunday, they’ll host their annual Super Soccer Schools Tournament.
Since the start of the season, Urban Academy has been in outstanding form.
A highlight was their performance at the Kearsney Soccer Tournament, where they went through the entire tournament without conceding a goal in open play. Their only defeat occurred in the final, where they lost to the defending champions, Pinetown Boys’ High, 3-1 from the penalty spot.
Since that match, the Urban Academy team has regrouped and continued to improve their already exemplary record.
On Friday, the Super Soccer Schools Tournament kicks off, with Urban Academy being joined by, among others, George Campbell, Bridge House, Westview High School, Victoria Park High, Chapman High, and Linkside High, with competition taking place for both girls and boys.
