With the athletics season drawing to a close, the Jeugland High School athletes had one goal in mind this year and that is to win the 2023 Inter high. The athletes were well-prepared, and everyone knew what was expected of them. From the start, you could see that there are three schools that are going to fight until the end to take the trophy home. Hoërskool Ben Voster from Tzaneen, the host school of the event, along with Hoërskool Eldoraigne from Pretoria, was chasing Jeugland for that top position.

With the day coming to an end, it was clear that the relays were going to play a big role in the outcome. Jeugland stuck to their guns and stayed ahead of Hoërskool Ben Voster until the end. Jeugland was crowned the winner of the Inter high and will be moving up a pool in 2024.

Two of Jeugland’s athletes stood out during the day and received the top honor at the prize giving. Matthew Howard received the award for the best senior track athlete of the day. Junior Tukuta received the award for the best senior field athlete as well as the Senior Victor Ludo rum award for the day. Jeugland is proud to announce that they received, in total, 67 medals that consisted of 23 Gold, 22 Silver, and 22 Bronze. Here are the names of all the medal winners.
