Curro Durbanville hosted the Curro Cup 2022 Hockey Tournament from March 31 to April 2.
Forty teams comprising 16 players each competed in fierce 45-minute matches for the chance to lift one of four trophies. Learners from 13 different Curro schools from across the country took part in the tournament, with Curro Hazeldean triumphing in the u-13 boys’ category and Curro Durbanville in the u-13 girls’. Learners from the Curro Durbanville took first prize in both the girls’ and boys’ tournaments in the u-19 categories.
Other notable mentions include Curro Aurora (second place in boys’ u-13s), Curro Serengeti (third place in girls’ u-13s), St Dominic’s Newcastle (second place in boys’ u-19s) and Waterstone College (third place in boys’ u-19s).
“The Curro Cup is a great opportunity for learners, staff and parents from different Curro schools to come together, enjoy and applaud exemplary sporting success. I am especially proud of the achievements of Curro Durbanville for not only hosting a great tournament but for also bringing home three of the four trophies. Well done to the staff and fabulous learners,” said Curro Holdings CEO Andries Greyling.
The Curro Cup aims to identify the independent school group’s best sports stars and teams across 12 sporting codes. This year’s competition kicked off in February 2022, with learners already competing for trophies in athletics, mountain biking, netball, rugby and hockey.
Tournaments for eSports, swimming and golf are scheduled in the upcoming weeks.
