For the 5^th time in the past six years it was Oranje Meisies who travelled to the prestigious St Mary’s Waverely Festival and walked away with the crown.

Very little change this week on the Turftech Girls Top 50 Rankings although we can expect plenty of movement as the Festival Tournaments get underway.

Menlopark remain on top of this week’s TurfTech First Team Girl’s Rankings, although we have far more teams that have been included in the rankings following the past weeks’ matches.

Still early days in the U16 Girls season with many teams yet to get into full blown action and we can expect yet another hotly contested year.

The season is still very fresh but already we are looking at a two horse race between Menlopark and Oranje Meisies who have started the year in impressive form.

St.Mary’s Kloof put a historic performance at this year’s St.Mary’s Waverley Festival as they fought their way into the final match in a showdown with Collegiate which they managed to win in dramatic fashion.

The dust has settled on yet another fantastic hockey season with many more teams joining the rankings and competing fiercely to finish as high up the table as possible.

Perhaps the highlight of the U16 season was the introduction of the Paarl Gym U16 Top Schools Tournament for the first time and the huge success the event achieved which further enhanced the profile of the sport.

It was a motivated Menlo Park who took on the best in South Africa at the FNB Top 12 Schools Tournament hosted by Oranje Meisies and ended up champions when the dust had settled.

There was some steady progress up the Girl’s Hockey Top 70 Rankings this week by St. Mary’s Waverley who recorded some valuable wins at this stage of the season.
