What to expect at this year's Sasfin Cape Town Sixes

The festival has incorporated local footie heroes, Fives Futbol to add to the weekend lineup. There will be over 100 teams playing in the tournaments this year and, for the first time, the Sasfin Cape Town Sixes will introduce two new women’s leagues – one cricket and one football.

“This year boasts a range of activities not only for our cricket and football fans but also for the whole family. We have an array of activities for kids, a global food village and a great ensemble of local music talent such as The Kiffness, making it the perfect fun-filled day out for all,” says founder Sean Young.

The Sasfin Sixes is supported by cricket legends Allan Donald, Brett Schultz, Meyrick Pringle and comedian Dalin Olivier who dedicate their personal hours to teaching in the #HitPovertyForASix coaching cricket clinics – which focus on training, upskilling and brightening the lives of 100s of disadvantaged children across the Cape.
