30 Schools for Oakdale
They come from near and far to Riversdale - from Namibia, Gauteng, Northwest, Northern Cape, Eastern Cape and several places in the Western Cape.
Most of the visiting schools are back from last year, which suggests satisfaction - Bredasdorp, Upington, Overberg of Caledon, Monumentpark of Kuils River, Landboudal of Jacobsdal, Dirkie Uys of Moorreesburg, Upington, Kirkwood, Langenhoven Gim of Oudtshoorn, Hermanus, Die Brandwag of Uitenhage, Sentraal of Bloemfontein, Durbanville, Vredendal, Strand, Lichtenburg, Bethlehem Voortrekker, Oosterlig of Boksburg, Brackenfell, Bellville, Potchefstroom Gim, Diamantveld, Welkom Gim, Augsburg Landbougimnasium of Clanwilliam and Windhoek Gim.
It's easier to say that the new teams are Driehoek of Vanderbijlpark, Kempton Park, Hugenote of Wellington and Hoërskool Rustenburg.
That means that there will be 15 matches each of the three days. The fixtures for Days 2 and 3 will depend on the performances of the day before.
