Hosts for the 2025 edition of the Craven Week confirmed
Hoërskool Middelburg will host the Stadio Craven Week in Middelburg in Mpumalanga next year.
It will be the 60th edition of the prestigious tournament.
It will be the third time since the inaugural Craven Week back in 1964 that the town was founded in 1864 as Nasareth. It was renamed to Middelburg in 1872.
The previous Craven Week hosted in Middelburg was held at HTS Middelburg in 2014. It was also hosted in the sleepy Mpumalanga town in 1978.
