Representing Southern Gauteng at provincial level

Jamie will join players from across the province under the banner of the Southern Gauteng Hockey Association (SGHA), which oversees hockey development across Johannesburg, Sedibeng, and the West Rand. SGHA’s teams compete in structured indoor competitions and national events, including matches that feature some of the strongest provincial sides in the country.
