Spring Graduation 2026 🎓

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to our graduates of last week 💙🤍

Your time at UCT was measured in more than lectures, examinations and matchdays. It was shaped by discipline, sacrifice, resilience and the people you shared it with. You have represented the blue and white while building something beyond the field and that is a chapter worth celebrating!

As you step into what comes next, you take with you the values, friendships and memories built through your time as an Ikey ⭐️

From the Green Mile to wherever the road leads next, we are proud to have had you as part of our club 🙏

Congratulations Tigers 🐅

From Soweto to university and provincial rugby, Dimpho Kwayine has continued to push forward despite every obstacle 💙

After outstanding fees forced her to leave UCT, she’s been given a second chance to restart her Geomatics degree at CPUT but she needs our support to make it possible 🙏

We’re raising £16,562 towards her tuition, accommodation and essential costs.

Let’s help keep Dimpho in university, on the field and chasing her dream 🤩

Donate. Share. Support.

Annual Awards 2026 🏆

No boots. No tape. No jerseys. Just the people behind it all, dressed up for a change 🤭

Thursday night belonged to the personalities, the big characters, the quiet grafters, the difference-makers and everyone who brings something uniquely theirs to this club!

Some left with silverware, but there was a whole room worth celebrating 💙

Congratulations to our 2026 award recipients, and an even bigger cheers to every player, coach and member of our Ikeys family who continues to make this club what it is 🙏

A huge thank you to @southernsunhotels for opening your doors to us and giving us the perfect home for a very special night ✨

See you next season 🐅
