It has been a difficult year to get sport up and running.
                          Just as we established a real flow of practices and even

                          some  matches  -  it  was  taken  away  from  us  in  a  flash,
                          with  the  announcement  of  a  harder  lock  down  at  the

                          end  of  term  2.  This  left  us  wondering  whether  sport
                          would resume during the 3rd term.


                          Much to our surprise, we were allowed to start practices
                          and matches. Of course, the excitement is tempered by

                          reservations  about  rising  Covid  cases  in  the  Western
                          Cape.


                          While  the  effect  of  Covid  on  sport  has  been  really

                          heartbreaking, we continue to do what we are able to do
                          and  we  continue  to  strive  for  excellence  within  the

                          parameters.

                            Herzlia  would  like  to  congratulate  all  those

                          sportsmen/women  who  were  able  to  continue  training
                          and who have excelled in their chosen sports. This takes

                          true  commitment  and  dedication  and  we  look  forward
                          to following their successes.


                          Hats  off  to  all  the  Sports  Heads,  teachers  in  charge  of

                          sports  and  the  pupils  for  persevering  through  these
                          trying times. Your efforts are much appreciated.
