The hugely popular SPAR KZN Schoolgirls\u2019 Hockey Challenge is back on track this year, with a take two of their milestone tenth year. <\/p>\n

SPAR KZN Schoolgirls\u2019 Hockey Challenge Take Two of the Tenth Year<\/h3>\n

Having only progressed halfway through the fixtures last year, before CoViD paused play in the tournament\u2019s celebratory year, it will be extremely exciting for the girls to get back onto the turf. It is full steam ahead for the annual girls\u2019 hockey tournament with the ten regional tournaments rolling out in a quick-fire six weekends.<\/p>\n

The month of May is choc-a-block full of action with eight of the regionals taking place. Tipping off the season, Crawford La Lucia hosts the Durban North Regional on Sunday 2 May. The second tournament travels inland to Wembley College in Greytown for the uMvoti, uThukela and uMzinyathi Regional on Saturday 8 May. Curro Hillcrest will see teams from the Highway area taking to their turf on Sunday 9 May.<\/p>\n

The fourth tournament heads up to Richards Bay for the KZN Northern Coastal Regional with Grantleigh hosting on Saturday 15 May. Back in Durban<\/a>, the fifth tournament heads to the newly laid turf at Durban Girls\u2019 High School\u2019s Three Schools Trust for the Durban Central Regional on Sunday 16 May. The following weekend, the action moves inland again, this time to Newcastle to play on the brand new astro at Ferrum High School on Saturday 22 May.<\/p>\n

The last two tournaments in May are a double-header in Hilton on Saturday 29. St Anne\u2019s College welcomes teams participating in both the Pietermaritzburg Northern Regional and Pietermaritzburg Central Regional.<\/p>\n

Kingsway High School will host the ninth challenge at the Three Schools Trust for the Durban South Regional on Sunday 6 June. Rounding off the 2021 season, King Edward High School will host the tenth and final regional on Sunday 12 June hosting teams from the Southern KZN<\/p>\n

The only difference in this year\u2019s fixtures is the absence of the much-loved and highly anticipated Grand Finals. It will be back in all its grandeur next year.<\/p>\n

Tournament Director, Les Galloway from Schoolgirl Sport<\/a> said, \u201cWe have really missed the action. It has been just over a year since the curtain came down on us, and I cannot wait to see the girls back on the pitch enjoying these wonderful SPAR tournaments.\u201d<\/p>\n

Making a welcome return, Varsity College continues their phenomenal support of girls\u2019 hockey. Varsity College Scouts will be on the lookout at all of the tournaments for any shining stars, in the hopes of offering them a bursary.<\/p>\n

All CoViD protocols will be in place to ensure the safety of all participating. And due to current CoViD regulations and protocols, no spectators will be allowed.<\/p>\n
