At half time, Creston completely dominated the scoreline with the scoreboard showing 5-1 to Creston, who broke the goal drought with two quick fire goals to a score of 7-1. Suid-Natal High finally managed to penetrate the strong defence and net two goals with the final whistle blowing at 7-3 to Creston.
In the second semi-final, Suidies came up against host school Southcity Christian School. At half time, Suid-Natal were slightly ahead on 8–6.
During the second half, the visiting team defended ferociously, not allowing the hosts to have any constructive time in the circle. Suid-Natal earned themselves another three points and won the game 11-6, getting them through to the final.
