Fixtures, scores, results and more from the 2025 edition of the Jozi Cup in Gauteng, South Africa.
This year’s Jozi Cup will start on 11 May.
“Officially endorsed by Lions Cricket, this community-based competition includes over 25 clubs spanning 10 age groups and over 130 participating teams from under-11 right through to over-40,” read a statement from the Jozi Cup.
“The brainchild of Lions Cricket, the Jozi Cup was developed to foster community club cricket which ultimately serves as a continuation of the pride’s pipeline feeder system. Inclusive of blind cricket teams as well as players from the valued Talent Acceleration Programme, there really is no stone left unturned when it comes to unearthing the talent within the pipeline.”
Jozi Cup tournament director Reuben Mandlazi added: “This is a competitive tournament that offers players the opportunity to improve their game under the guidance of experienced players, whilst at the same time encouraging them to play with freedom.
“As per every year, the tournament strives to uphold its founding values of inclusivity, diversity, fairness, equity and equality no matter gender, race or religion; offering clubs and the entire cricketing eco-system something to look forward to each winter and feel a genuine sense of belonging. We are also thrilled to welcome a girls under-13 division for the first time.”
Lions Cricket chief executive officer Jono Leaf-Wright said: “We are excited to have SA20 franchise Joburg Super Kings as part of this tournament again and supporting our Jozi Cup. Having them involved certainly elevates the experience for all our participating clubs and players.”
Old Edwardians Cricket Club won the Jozi Cup men’s open title in 2024.
