WSPS enters one team into the Badminton school league each year. We frequently have our players being selected for the District and KZN teams, a tribute to the commitment of both players and coaches. This racket sport is enjoyed by a relatively small group of players, from those who compete in the major sport codes to those who prefer cultural pursuits.

WSPS fields approximately 16 cricket teams every season. This means we sometimes play against different schools in a single week to allow all our boys and girls an opportunity to enjoy the experience of playing in competitive matches. Our top performers are regularly selected to District and KZN teams. Cricket remains a well-supported sport code and provides parents the opportunity to socialise around the fields on a weekly basis. The recently established Westville Cricket Academy run by Mr Warren Van Zyl is an excellent addition to our coaching and provides a structured environment for cricket skills development.

Fielding 24 hockey teams in a season (12 boys teams and 12 girls teams) provides a large number of our children with an opportunity to participate in this popular, skilful and high paced sport. The building of the Westville Schools Astro has made a notable difference to the performance level of our players and selections to District and KZN teams is a frequent occurrence. Our indoor teams compete strongly in the leagues offered by the highway’s schools. The encouragement, energy and input of coaches and parents has created an encouraging future for the development of hockey at our school.

An average of 15 rugby teams are fielded every season, including three or four teams from the junior primary school. Each team plays approximately 10 matches through the season. The enthusiasm and passion on display from our players throughout the season, and the commitment and expertise of our coaches has made rugby one of the more popular and successful sport codes at our school. The large number of players selected to both District teams and for higher honours bodes well for the future development of our players and the sport. Our 1^st XV competes in the annual Gelofte preseason Night Series (frequently being crowned overall winners) and traditionally undertake an inland tour to Gauteng to compete against some of the top schools in the country.

One of our country’s most popular sports, the profile of football at our school has grown rapidly in the last decade. Approximately 150 boys turn out for trials and competitive matches for on average 13 teams make for an exciting season in the third term. Our players frequently gain selection to PADSSA and KZN teams.

Our squash team has developed a reputation as tough competitors and under the guidance of excellent and passionate coaching have performed exceptionally well in the recent past. The large number of selections to KZN teams are a testament to the successful development of squash at our school.

Tennis is traditionally enjoyed by a relatively small number of players but the nurturing of all our players from beginner to competitive performers has seen it become an enjoyable code at our school. Whether it be in competitive matches against other schools or in the social matches organised by coaches, the level of enjoyment and positive attitude of our players is a source of pride to us all.

Water polo is a fast becoming a popular sport and there is a growing demand for it to be included as a core sport in primary schools. The sport is currently offered to the grade 6 and 7 boys and girls. We are fortunate to be able to make use of the Westville Boys High Aquatics centre to practice and host our fixtures. Our teams regularly participate in festivals and tournaments hosted in to both the Highway and Durban Coastals districts.
