It’s Festival Season! Hockey, rugby. football, netball and so much more. All Live!
The much‑anticipated Festival Season has officially arrived, and SuperSport Schools is thrilled to bring every moment of action to fans across South Africa. This is the time of year when school sport takes centre stage and Tomorrow’s Champions rise and we’re proud to ensure that families, communities, and supporters can watch these young stars shine from anywhere. From historic tournaments to major school sport showdowns, this year’s lineup is bigger, better, and more exciting than ever.
It all begins with the iconic Saints Easter Sportsfest, South Africa’s oldest Easter festival, kicking off with the Prep Fest from 26–28 March and the College Fest from 1–6 April, presenting top‑tier hockey, rugby, football, squash, netball, and cross‑country talent. St Mary’s will also celebrate a special milestone as it hosts its 26th Hockey Festival from 26–29 March, an event that has played a significant role in showcasing future national stars long before they become Tomorrow’s Champions.
Adding to the anticipation, both the Nomads Hockey Festival (28–30 March) and the Pretoria Boys’ Rugby Festival (4–6 April) form part of Pretoria Boys’ High School’s proud 125th anniversary celebrations, a fitting stage for young athletes striving for excellence. Fans can also look forward to the hard‑hitting Noord-Suid Rugby Tournament at Affies from 27–31 March, and a powerhouse run of Easter rugby festivals including St John’s, Kearsney, and KES. The excitement continues into late April with the Grey High Rugby Festival and the massive Wildeklawer and Fairtree festivals, bringing more opportunities to witness the incredible talent shaping the future of South African sport.
