We Rise by lifting others !

BMDHS together with the Kwena Group will be hosting the first Urban Sports Festival on 8-10 August 2024.

The vision is to make this a national annual event. With 12 Participating Schools within the Western Cape we will host an event which will allow these young sports enthusiasts to have a competitive chance to be named the Urban Warriors, be part of and participate in the World Schools Festival. This year the festival will include Rugby, Netball and Sevens giving our winners international travel opportunities and exposure not given before.

For the not so sporty, we have incorporated the Urban Music Festival. Allowing musicians and DJ’s to showcase their talent while being judged by our Celebrity panel. On day 3 the Winner/s will receive the title of Titans of Talent and Beat Clash DJ 2024 winning cash prizes and opportunities to perform along side our guest artists at the Gala Prizegiving evening on the 10th August.

We have come together to give urban schools the opportunity to make their mark and show the world what they can do, when given the opportunity. We would love you to be apart of the journey !

TEAMS TO BE ANNOUNCED ON 10 AUGUST 2024 AT THE AWARDS EVENING

The World Schools Festival, inaugurated in 2018, is a prestigious international sporting festival that showcases the talent and skill of young athletes from top schools worldwide, celebrating their unity and excellence. Scheduled to take place in ABU DHABI in December 2024, this festival is a celebration of sportsmanship, cultural exchange, and the spirit of competition.

It brings together elite rugby and netball teams, including the Urban Warriors selected from the Urban Sports Festival. Historically, the WSF festival has welcomed leading schools, such as Grey College from South Africa, Hamilton Boys' High School from New Zealand, and Hartpury College from England, known for their strong sporting programs. These institutions, among others, exemplify the high calibre of competition and the diverse cultural backgrounds represented.

The World Schools Festival not only highlights the participants' athletic talents but also promotes unity, respect, and a shared love for sports. It offers athletes the chance to challenge themselves, learn from their peers, and experience the thrill of international competition. Beyond the matches, the festival fosters personal growth, teamwork, and the creation of lifelong memories, making it a transformative experience for all involved.

This is a life changing opportunity for players that represent economically challenged schools
