Competitive school’s netball at Pro-Ed

Rudi Bowe

The Capricorn Group Schools Netball League game played the first time at Pro-Ed Academy in Swakopmund on 13 July.

Capricorn Group extended their legacy as connectors of positive change by sponsoring the Capricorn Group Schools Netball League, previously known as the Bank Windhoek Schools Netball Super League. This netball league carries the official endorsement of the Namibia Schools Sport Union (NSSU) and is regarded as the Official National League for Netball in Namibia.
The under 19 teams from PSG Pro-Ed Academy and De Duine Secondary School set up big surprises as the draw against the under 18 teams of Tsumeb Gymnasium and Windhoek Gymnasium respectively.
The under 19 game between the two harbour town schools, Walvis Bay Private High School and De Duine was won by the Private School 59 – 36. PSG Pro-Ed Academy lost their game against Windhoek Gymnasium 28 – 38 whilst De Duine beat Edugate 35 – 30, WBPHS beat Tsumeb Gymnasium 55 – 49 and Edugate beat 49 – 41 WBPHS. Pro-Ed Academy is very grateful for a successful day of Netball and the good spirit in which the Capricorn Group Schools Netball League games took place. It was a privilege for Pro-Ed to host the games and they hope to do so again next year.
Thanks to everyone who supported the day and congratulations to the teams who were victorious in the field.
The under 12 team of Walvisbaai Laerskool, under 13, 15 and 19 teams of Walvis Bay Private School and the under 17 and 19 teams of Duine Secondary School from Walvis Bay and the under 12, 13, 14, 17 and 19 teams from Pro-Ed Academy from Swakopmund are in Windhoek to participate in the Capricorn Group Schools Netball League Finals that are under way at the Windhoek Gymnasium Netball Courts.
