First time in an official school uniform

 Being homeschooled all his life, except for those first 6 months, school uniforms have never been part of Master Liam's journey. Then Garsfontein Hoërskool were willing to take a chance on a homeschooler with big dreams starting 2026.

Today - 21 March 2026 - is the first away game when Garsies play Noordheuwel in Krugersdorp. And that means they must travel in school uniforms. 

I will post his own words in the second picture. That is straight from his heart. 

This young man is a very, very proud Garsie!

1st game for Hoërskool Garsfontein - 13 March 2026

Garsies was 7th in the top 50 school rugby rankings for 2025. So a top 10 rugby school in SA. 

Today Master Liam experienced what so many youngsters only dream of. 

A 26 to 19 win against Jeppe High School for boys. And a good game for our dude. Plus a bleeding nose and a rugby boot to the knee. 

We are all proud of your commitment, dedication and hard work. A lot of sweat went into this day.
