Daniel Smith of SACS scored the only century on the opening day of the annual Cape Schools’ Cricket Week. Smith (101*) steered his side to a convincing nine wicket victory over Noord-Kaap with his unbeaten century. 

Noord-Kaap only managed 137 with Kai Curren (2/4) and Athir Fayker (2/25) causing the most damage with the ball in hand for SACS. The team from Kimberley will be strengthened by their three Cubs Week players Juan Mpofu, Andrew Louw and Mason Zacharia who helped the VKB Knights to be crowned undisputed champions of the tournament in Stellenbosch.
