Cricket Report 2017
2017 was an amazing year for Die Wilge on the
Cricket field. The boys played this gentleman’s
game with great pride and enjoyment. There were
some great success stories throughout the year.
New sponsors also jumped on board, and we would
like to thank JLC Securitech for choosing and
believing in us. We are more than grateful for
your help and contributions.

the participating schools, Die Wilge High
School, Keurhof (Klerksdorp) and Oom Paul

SA LSEN CRICKET WEEK 2017 – East London
It brings me great honour to supply you with
feedback of the Cricket Week that took place
during the past school holiday.
Die Wilge had 5 players and 2 educators in the
North West Dragons team for 2017:
Ramolatudi Lubby, Zolile Nyatela, Kurtley Jones,
Bathabile Masigo and Tshepo Moswetsi were
selected for the team. Mr. LP Geyer was the
Chairperson and coach and Mr. RL Prinsloo was
the Secretary.
We encountered different seasons in one day in
East London, with heavy downfalls and rain over
the week. This meant that we only played T20
cricket. This format was not at all our
strength, as we taught the boys throughout the
season not to play aggressive cricket. The
results would have been even better if we could
have played 50 over cricket, but that was
circumstances out of our hands.
In summary, North West won 3 out of the 4 games
played during the week. We convincingly won
against SWD, Mpumalanga Titans and the Free
State, but unfortunately lost against the
Easterns. These good results made North West the
Runners-Up for the Golden League.
North West Dragons vs SWD Dragons won with 5
wickets;
North West Dragons vs Easterns Dragons lost with
46 runs;
North West Dragons vs Mpumalanga Dragons won
with 8 wickets;
North West Dragons vs Free State Dragons won
with 43 runs.
The players that won the Man of the Match
rewards in the 3 games was:
- Bathabile Masigo (Die Wilge) against SWD, and
- Zolile Nyatela(Die Wilge) against Mpumalanga
Titans and the Free State.
The award for the Best bowler of the Week went
to Bathabile Masigo, with bowling figures of
15.2 overs, 10 wickets and conceding only 61
runs.
One of our players received 3 years’
participation award:
- Ramolatudi Lubby
Die Wilge made new history in 2017, with 2
players being chosen to be part of the SA LSEN
u/19 TEAM.
- Zolile Nyatela – 2nd year in the SA Team)
- Bathabile Masigo – This is a remarkable
achievement as this boy is only 13 year old.
Ramolatudi Lubby will be on standby if anyone
from the 13 players of the SA LSEN TEAM u/19 are
unable to attend the u/17 Rural Cricket Week in
White River in December.
This in summary means that Die Wilge has 3 out
of the possible 14 SA LSEN players in the
National Team.
This is a remarkable achievement and we apprize
the selectors in believing and recognising the
talent that was brought forward by the North
West Cricket LSEN and Die Wilge High School.
In conclusion, we would like to thank every
player and educator for their dedication and
willingness to participate. Thank you for making
2017 yet another memorable year for Die Wilge
Cricket. We would also like to thank the
principle, Mr. AB Rudd, the administrative staff
and the Hostel staff for your assistance and
support. We couldn’t have done it without you.
