Hockey Rankings

A new look to this week’s Boy’s Hockey Top 70 Rankings with Jeppe finally clinching the top spot from Maritzburg College by the narrowest of margins.

With the deadline to qualify in for the Oranje Meisie’s hosted FNB Super 12 Tournament on 31^st May, 2018 fast approaching this is how the rankings are looking with a couple of days to go.

The race to the top of the table is becoming very intense with any one of several teams capable to ending the season as the leading U16 hockey team in South Africa.

Herschel remains the leading Girls U16 Hockey team in the country following their brace of victories over the last week and they certainly seem to be a team who is difficult to beat.

Herschel delivered a big result over the weekend with a 7-3 win over Rhenish which has caused a bit of a tremor at the top end of this week’s Girls Top 70 Rankings.

Pretoria Boys High, who had been inching up the rankings in an attempt to force a coup at the top of the table, suffered a narrow loss to St Johns College over the weekend that has seen them lose a bit of footing on this week’s Belgotex Sports Boy’s Top 70 Rankings.

There is a slight shuffle that takes place on this week’s Boys U16 Hockey Rankings with Grey High School inching up to the second spot on the table which still has the other Grey at the top.

It has become a very congested top half of the table with very little to separate the teams as we move into the business end of the season.

Bloemhof put in one of their finest results of the season when they took on and beat the high-flying Herschel team which has resulted in a minor reshuffling of teams on this week’s Girls Hockey Belgotex Sports Top 70 Rankings.

Maritzburg College kept the Kearsney College challenge at bay last week with a robust 3-1 victory which keeps them entrenched at the top of this Week’s Belgotex Sports Top 70 Rankings.
