Boks edge Bafana in inaugural TWH Legends Cup
John Smit’s Springbok legends edged Bafana Bafana on a count out to win the inaugural TWH Legends Cup: Clash of the Codes at Pearl Valley, with the Proteas third.
The Springbok legends needed a count out, but they got it done.
The Boks finished level with Bafana Bafana on 11½ points apiece after two days of Ryder Cup style golf at Pearl Valley, with the rugby side awarded the inaugural TWH Legends Cup: Clash of the Codes, brought to you by Compleat Golfer.
The Proteas, captained by Pat Symcox, finished third on 10.

Smit led a squad heavy with World Cup pedigree. Fourie du Preez, Steven Kitshoff, Pat Lambie, Schalk Brits, Ryan Kankowski, Werner Greeff and Marius Joubert all turned out at the Jack Nicklaus-designed course in the Cape winelands, going up against Proteas and Bafana Bafana legends across the two days.

The closest anyone came to the big prize was Smit himself, whose tee shot at the par-three 13th finished just a few feet from the flag. It wasn’t quite enough to claim the watch worth R1.8-million on offer for an ace there, sponsored by Peter Machlup Jewellers, but it was as close as the field got over the two days.

Off the course, the camaraderie matched the competition, with Brits, Lambie, Kankowski and Smit himself all quick to thank organiser Paul Stubbs for the two days, and already looking ahead to next year’s edition.
The needle was out too, with Pat Symcox in typically playful form, winding up players in the buildup to the longest drive challenge.
More than a dozen amateur activations ran alongside the legends’ contest, including nearest-the-pin competitions on three of the par-threes and a long-drive challenge on the 9th.
Habari Media CEO Kevin Ferguson was full of praise for how the inaugural event came together. “A huge shout out to the Compleat Golfer team and headline sponsor TWH, who have had a strong association with other Habari properties like SA Rugby Magazine,” he said. “A big thank you to the respective team captains and their playing squads, who showcased their ability to be top golfers as much as they were soccer, rugby and cricket internationals.
“Pearl Valley was the perfect choice of course for our inaugural event. And the three squads were the perfect representation of legends in the South African sporting landscape.”
TWH Bridging Finance was headline sponsor, with numerous other big-name backers on board, while the Marquee Group’s Beat the Pro hole, featuring Sunshine Tour pros Jordan Burnard and Cole Stevens, was the highlight of the par-three activations.

Zambia’s U18 handball team eyes continental breakthrough
The team is currently camping at the Zambia Sports Development Centre in Lusaka. Zambia is targeting a breakthrough after a string of group-stage exits in previous editions.

Zambia’s U18 men’s handball national team is stepping up preparations for the 22nd African Handball Confederation (CAHB) African men’s youth handball championship, set for September 15-22 in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
The team, currently camping at the Zambia Sports Development Centre in Lusaka, is targeting a breakthrough after a string of group-stage exits in previous editions.
Head coach Andrew Kalunga says he has studied Zambia’s opponents and is working on exploiting their weaknesses.
He says the team is nearly ready for the continental showpiece, with the final focus on tightening their defence.
“The team is preparing well and, as you can see, the morale is high among the boys. They are much prepared for the tournament,” Kalunga said.
Zambia have been drawn in Group D alongside hosts Ivory Coast, Guinea and Burundi.
Kalunga believes Zambia’s previous encounters with their group opponents give his side confidence heading into the tournament.
“Since we have played them before, we know how they play. This time, there’s a high possibility of winning,” Kalunga added.
Fourteen teams will compete in the tournament, including defending champions Egypt, Nigeria, Morocco and Rwanda.
The Abidjan tournament will also serve as Africa’s official qualifying event for the 2027 International Handball Federation (IHF) men’s youth world championship, with the hosts set to be announced later.
