Dirkie Uys - Tigers of the Wheatlands
Tue, 31 May 2011 12:42

Stand-in captain Jason Kriel prepares to lead the Tigers out

About 100km out of Cape Town on the Cape-Namibia Route (the N7) lies charming Moorreesburg. Set in the heart of the Swartland, halfway between Malmesbury and Piketberg and about 100km from Cape Town, it is well known for its essential contribution to the nation's wheat supply.

However, over the last year and a bit, it has been attracting ever-increasing attention in a totally unrelated sphere: the performances of the 1st XV of the local high school Dirkie Uys.

First, a bit about this school which traces its roots all the way back to 1875. The intervening years have been spent ensuring that it offers facilities and opportunities which would be the envy of many schools in far larger communities.

For example, although the school is relatively small, catering for around 300 learners, it boasts its own music academy, DUMA, which offers highly-qualified tuition in a variety of instruments and presents regular performances by its large number of prospective virtuosi, whose numbers include young would-be musicians drawn from all sectors of the local community.

The home-from-home atmosphere in the beautifully maintained separate boys' and girls' hostels is enhanced by the relatively small numbers of boarders, who enjoy first-class facilities, including a separate hostel splash pool!

The learners have a surpringly broad extra-mural programme which allows virtually every individual to find his or her niche. The school can boast outstanding recent performances in activities as diverse as swimming, biathlon, chess and karate, in several cases at more than just provincial level. Little wonder learner participation in sport, including the well-trained First Aid squad, is estimated at 97%.

Then there's the tantalising carrot of regular local and overseas tours to serve as added motivation to its sportsmen. The Under-19A and B Netball sides toured Malaysia and Thailand earlier this year and, on the night of the rugby matches against Charlie Hofmeyr, parents and friends of the school were cooking up all sorts of tasty delights to boost funds for an Under-19 cricket tour to the Netherlands in 2012.

Proud principal Daniel Ross, the widely-respected author of several economics text-books and chief examiner in the subject in the Western Cape, notes that, despite having only some 129 boys at the school, they field five separate rugby sides, several of whose players also turn out for the hockey teams on Fridays. A distinct feather in the school's cap is the personal mentoring twenty of the school's rugby players receive on a regular basis from locally-based coaching guru Alan Zondagh.

The personnel behind the rise of the Tigers are as diverse as one could expect to find. Local doyen Anton Volschenk has been the motive force behind rugby at both the school and the local club for decades. He and right-hand man Faf Joubert provide the solid foundation from which the two young First XV coaches are confidently taking their side in a bold new direction.

Johan Jacobs, who boasts a Master of Science degree in Genetics, and newly-graduated Stephan Basson are both the right side of thirty and together have developed a high-powered attacking style which has drawn admiration from many quarters. At the Tony Stoops Rugby Festival in Goodwood in April, the side was awarded the cup for the team producing the most attractive rugby. Realistically, no-one else stood a chance.

There's no need for those clichés about players being prepared to walk through fire for their mentors: one anecdote says it all. When Jason Kriel, whose inclusion in the 2011 Boland Craven Week side was announced on Saturday, was approached by a WP powerhouse at elite group trials last year with an offer to join that school, he immediately declined, stating simply that it would be absurd even to contemplate such a move at the end of his Grade 11 year. You can't buy loyalty like that.

Kriel apart, scrumhalf Flippie Jacobs has been selected for the 2011 Boland Academy week side and Dirk de Jager, who plays fullback for the 1st XV, will be attending the Under-16 Grant Khomo Week as first-choice scrumhalf for the province. Many consider popular captain No.8 Dirk Kotzé, currently injured, particularly unlucky not to have received higher recognition.

With first-team stalwarts lock Bradley Merrick, wing Wian van Schalkwyk - forced to miss a recent game because he was competing at the Boland Chess Championships! - and flyhalf Du Toit Maree all still in Grade 11, the immediate future looks remarkably rosy.

As the lights are turned off at the town's Gene Louw sportsgrounds and the only sound disrupting the peace is the trumpeting of one of the many freight trains that visit the railyards at the edge of town, it is difficult to reconcile the tranquil rustic ambience with the frenzied excitement and deafening warcries of the previous hours.

But then, these Tigers need their sleep too, to recharge their batteries, until they feed on their next opponents!
