In 2006 it was almost unheard of that a team had more than 1 000 finds. In 2010 quite a few teams had broken the 2 000 barrier.
As at April 2018 only 30 South African teams had broken the 4 000 geocache mark. There is one South African team, team "iPajero", who went through the 17 000 mark in 2017. Four South African teams have more than 7 000 finds, being "The Huskies", "quiddle", "Geelvink" and "rodnjoan".
