Uplands Pupils Excel in Sport
For a relatively “small” and “young” school, Uplands College has consistently produced exceptional results and this year is no exception. Particular mention must be made of the number of College pupils who have earned their provincial colours in various sports during May and June 2007.

Reinart Toerien and Sharee Comley represented Mpumalanga on the Tennis courts. Joshua Snyman and Richard Howland represented Mpumalanga on the Squash courts at the Inter-Provincial tournament in Bloemfontein. Joshua was the only member in his team who won all his matches. Based on his outstanding results, he has been included in the SA Country Districts Squash Team.

Four Hockey players earned their provincial caps. Craig Pascoe, Timothy Berger (both U18A) and Kevin Addison (U16A) are playing for the Boys’ Hockey side; Magna Howard was selected for the Mpumalanga U17 Girls’ Hockey side.

Four Rugby players made it into the Puma Rugby teams. Ryan Thomson and Thabo Khoza have been selected for the Pumas U18A Academy side; Charles Siwele has been selected for the Pumas U18B Academy XV and Keith Trytsman made it into the Pumas U19B Team. Mr George van Rensburg, Deputy Headmaster, has been appointed coach of the Pumas U19A side.
