High School Derby: New Orleans vs Klein Nederburg

INTERSCHOOL SEASON IN PAARL


To start us off I just need to say: NOSS OF NIKS! Well, that phrase got a whole new meaning since New Orleans Secondary School won Klein Nederburg Secondary School with an end score: 18 to naught.

As soon as the Virgo and Leo stars align, the Interschool season starts. Or as in a generalized coloured statement would go: “Derby Season”. The event kicked off on the 26th July 2019 with Miss and Mister New Orleans, a beauty pageant for learners attending the school. The week following the crowning of Miss and Mister New Orleans, the school organizing the year’s derby arranges a function for all the sportsmen, sportswomen, first aid learners, and other participating staff and learners to declare the derby open and declare the learners and staff temporary enemies.

The main event was a huge success. The day’s events start with the school’s dance groups entertaining the crowds, then all the A-teams, except the u/18A team, plays. After a round of singing the National Anthem, and both schools’ songs and a message from both principals, the u/18A team starts playing.

The game between New Orleans Secondary School and Klein Nederburg Secondary School is televised yearly on SuperSport.
