                                                            SACS High open the season with a good win vs Bishops

                                                            SACS High did exceptionally well over the weekend vs Bishops, winning 4 of 6 fixtures, including an 11-6 win for the First Team. Bishops had little time to prepare, however, and will no doubt be stronger later in the season! Full results here.

                                                            Snapshots from the SACS Squad tour to Hungary

                                                            Check out some photo's from the SACS Water Polo tour to Hungary! Lots of snow and fun, it seems! Find them here.

                                                            U15A & 1st Team share the spoils vs Auckland Grammar from New Zealand

                                                            The U15A side started the year with a tough match vs the Auckland Grammar 2nd Team and were forced to play some top-drawer polo to get the win. Things are looking good and the polo was highly entertaining to watch. The 1st Team got off to a great start, going 4 - 0 up in the first chukka, but momentum was lost as many subs were made and the rhythm was broken. The match turned out to be a tightly contested affair, with Auckland scoring with 6 seconds left to secure an 8 - 7 win. Both SACS sides used these games as their last trials, and Auckland made sure to sort the men from the boys! Thanks to all our Kiwi friends for their exceptional spirit and tough opposition - we look forward to our future encounters!
