Welcome to the Top 10 Tournament

The Top 10 Tournament is coming to Mandeville Sports Club in Johannesburg from 2 to 4 December 2026 — ten of the strongest U19 boys teams from all over South Africa, three days of knockout-level intensity.

The race to be one of the ten is already on. Seven teams have been nominated so far: ESCA, Michaelhouse, Westville Boys High, Kings School Linbro Park, Maritzburg College, St Andrews College and Clapham High School.

Nominations are open to everyone — fans, family, players and coaches can all put a team forward. Nominations close at the end of September, so if your team deserves a place, make sure their name is in before the deadline.

Invitations will also be sent to top teams who have won tournaments nationwide. Once the selection criteria are complete, the final Top 10 teams will be announced right here on the website and on our social channels — follow @top10tournament on Facebook, X and Instagram so you don't miss it.

Days one and two are the group stage. On Friday 4 December the top sides meet in the semi-finals, followed by the third-place match and the final. Every score will be updated live on this site as matches finish.

See you at Mandeville.
