St Andrew’s at Coca-Cola Schools T20 Challenge National Finals

The Coca-Cola® T20 Schools Challenge Finals are finally upon us. After a long and challenging road, over 72 cricketers from six schools will be in action this weekend at the University of Stellenbosch to determine who will take victory for their respective province in the Schools Challenge.

The Coca-Cola® T20 Schools Challenge Finals are finally upon us. After a long and challenging road, over 72 cricketers from six schools will be in action this weekend at the University of Stellenbosch to determine who will take victory for their respective province in the Schools Challenge.

In its third year running, Coca-Cola® continues to sponsor the T20 Schools Challenge with over 11 000 players from 700 schools getting active on the cricket field. The Coca-Cola® T20 Schools Challenge has cemented itself as one of South Africa’s key talent identification chains and has created a platform where “Heroes are made”.

The Coca-Cola® “Hero of the Day” accolade was introduced in the 2013/14 tournament where a player who did something that turned the tide of a game had an opportunity to be recognized for their contribution in front of their peers. This accolade also represents recognising individuals who was able to showcase something extraordinary and may not necessarily be the man of the match or the top performer of the day. 

“Coca-Cola® South Africa is immensely proud of the role that it continues to play in the development of Cricket at a national school level. The Coca-Cola® T20 Schools Challenge, has grown into a reputable platform for youngsters to really showcase what they are truly made of and inspiring their peers to live an active healthy lifestyle through sports participation,” said Fetsi Mbele, Coca-Cola® South Africa Marketing Assets Manager.

Players unearthed at this year’s T20 Schools Challenge and in the Coca-Cola® Khaya Majola Cricket week will possibly be our future national team players and will add to the players that have already gone on to compete at a provincial level and ultimately played for the Proteas. Cricket players such as Kagiso Rabada and Quinton de Kock started their journey in both of the Coca-Cola® sponsored tournaments.

The format sees each of the 16 Cricket South Africa (CSA) unions stage their own tournaments to identify their provincial champions. A play off between the various provincial champions within their regions will determine which school will represent each of the six franchises in the national finals tournament.

The National Finals will take place at the University of Stellenbosch from 20 – 22 February 2015.

Schools that are representing their franchises include:

1.    Volkskool Potchefstroom –Lions

2.    St. Andrews Grahamstown – Warriors

3.    Grey College – Knights

4.    Hilton College – Dolphins

5.    Paarl Boys High – Cobras

6.    Menlopark – Titans
