This weekend promises a thrilling round of action in the Southern, City, and Northern Leagues as teams look to climb the standings and build momentum. In the Southern League, Rocklands will be aiming to bounce back after their 27–29 loss to Retreat on 05/04/2025. They face Peninsula, who are still searching for their first win and sit near the bottom of the table. Retreat, buoyed by their recent win, will host Young Wesleys in what should be a tightly contested fixture, with both teams on 50% win rates. Lagunya, still winless, will hope home ground advantage helps them against Titans, who also remain without a victory.
In the City League, Police will be looking to improve on their 17–22 loss to Blue Jets as they host Silvertree. Blue Jets, currently third on the log, will aim to maintain their 66.67% win rate when they face Young Ideas. Meanwhile, Elsies River United, fresh off a 20–10 win over Morning Star, take on Masiphumelele in a top-of-the-table clash. Morning Star, who lost last weekend, will be eager to bounce back against Silverleaf, who are struggling defensively. Manenberg Rangers, unbeaten so far, will look to keep their perfect record intact against Blakes.
In the Northern League, Raithby Universals continue to dominate after their 33–12 win over Windmeul United. They face Albions, who are mid-table and coming off a 24–24 draw with Blue Stars United. Sir Lowrians, also unbeaten, take on Windmeul United, while Stellenbosch-Coronations, who edged Excelsior 26–25, face Raithby Universals in a potential top-of-the-table showdown. Gordons Bay Pioneers, still winless, will be desperate for points when they meet Lamotte-Wanderers.
