Grey High Golf Tour 2026: Carrying the Legacy Abroad

On Sunday, 21 June 2026, a talented group of Grey High golfers will depart on an unforgettable journey as they represent our school on the international stage during the Grey High School UK Golf Tour 2026. Returning on Sunday, 5 July, these young men will have the opportunity to test their skills on some of the world’s most historic golfing courses while proudly carrying the traditions, values, and legacy of Grey Golf across the United Kingdom.

We are delighted to share the official Grey High School UK Golf Tour 2026 Commemorative Programme, a digital publication that introduces the touring squad, celebrates the people and businesses who have made this opportunity possible, and provides insight into the journey that lies ahead.

More than simply a tour, this experience reflects the spirit of the Grey Brotherhood. Built on friendship, mutual respect, and a commitment to excellence, Grey Golf has long been defined by young men who support one another both on and off the course. The 2026 touring side is proud to continue that tradition as ambassadors of our school and our golfing community.

Within the programme, readers can explore individual player profiles, learn more about our valued sponsors, and enjoy a glimpse into the personalities and camaraderie that make every touring side unique.

We invite our Grey family, alumni, supporters, and friends to follow the journey, celebrate these young men, and join us in wishing the touring squad every success as they embark on this remarkable international experience.

A letter from Rector Erasmus on behalf of Grey High School.

On behalf of the Men of The Grey.
Grey Boys’ High School mourns the passing of Mr Geoff Dakin, a distinguished Old Grey whose life reflected the very best values of our school.Geoff was a proud Old Grey and a true role model for the entire Grey community. He understood that loyalty is measured not by words or memory, but by action. He believed firmly that true service requires involvement, and that contribution only matters when it makes a tangible difference. To that end, he gave generously of his time, energy, and careful thought, always focused on what would genuinely benefit others, and especially The Grey.

It was evident to all who knew him that Grey occupied a central place in his heart. His desire to support the school, and to help ensure that Grey remained a beacon of excellence, was clear in every conversation. It was not sentiment alone that motivated him, but a deep and enduring sense of responsibility.

While his achievements extended far beyond the school, including national recognition as a cricketer, and later as the first President of the United Cricket Board of South Africa, Grey remembers him most fondly as a man who never forgot where his journey began.

Geoff will always be remembered as one of our most loyal Old Boys, someone who left a lasting and positive imprint on our school and community. His establishment of the Grey High School shop stands as a powerful example of this legacy; a practical, forward‑thinking contribution that, for many years, provided tangible support to the school and made a meaningful difference to generations of Grey families.

In recognising Geoff Dakin today, we honour a man who truly lived the Grey ideal. His legacy remains woven into the fabric of the school he loved, and his example continues to guide us. Grey Boys’ High School extends its deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. We give thanks for a life marked by loyalty, integrity, and enduring impact.

Rest in peace, Mr Dakin. You will always be part of Grey.
