Statistics never lie. During the 2016/2017 season, the Assupol TuksCricket team certainly made their presence felt every time they competed.

Definite highlights were winning the Momentum National Club Championships. It was the fourth tournament they managed to win. The team dominated the Northerns Cricket Union (NCU) leagues. They won the  Premier League, T20-Tournament and Time Cricket Tournament. Assupol TuksCricket also contested the Varsity Cricket Tournament final, losing to Northwest University.

Aiden Markram and Sune Luus were honoured at the Cricket South African Awards while at the CSA Breakfast Awards Ruan de Swardt, Lungi Ngidi and Heinrich Klaasen received awards.
