The defending champions have been one of the standout teams throughout the tournament, maintaining an unbeaten record as they continue their pursuit of another continental title.
South Africa opened their campaign with a commanding 90–20 victory over Tanzania before following it up with a 58–41 win against Zimbabwe. They continued their strong run in the pool stages with another convincing performance against Namibia, securing a 55–33 victory to finish at the top of Pool 1.
The results have highlighted the team’s consistency throughout the tournament, while the squad has also provided opportunities for several players to gain valuable experience on the continental stage.
With the pool stages now complete, the focus shifts to the knockout rounds, where every possession carries greater importance and there is no room for complacency.
Standing between South Africa and a place in the final is Malawi, who will be looking to produce a strong performance and challenge the defending champions for a spot in the title decider.
For South Africa, the objective is clear: continue the winning run and secure their place in the final.
