SBR Fixtures & Results for week ending – 15/03/2014
KZN tier-1 rugby door opens wider for Port Natal
Port Natal has won the right to play against the Glenwood and Hilton 1st XV’s this season.
The White Knights traveled to George Campbell’s beautiful grounds at North Beach in Durban on Saturday, 08 March and came away with a hard fought 18-13 win after 70-minutes filled with memorable moments. For either team the victory alone in what is usually a tough inter-schools fixture to win would have been cause for celebration. There was however more to the result. Due to the two schools having a twinning arrangement in place for fixtures against both Glenwood and Hilton, it means that Port Natal now gets the first team games while George Campbell will take on the second teams at the same venue on the same day.

Paarl Gymnasium under-16 Tournament 2014
The Paarl Gymnasium under-16 tournament is regarded as the best under-16 festival in South Africa. It is an absolute must attend event for all rugby scouts and agents. The talent on display at the event has often been described as off the charts. This year the 3-day tournament takes place from Saturday, 29 March until Wednesday, 02 April 2014. Read More →

It’s Glenwood vs Westville for the 48th time in history
It may not have started out that way in 1964 but Glenwood and Westville are now the two most power rugby schools in Durban, making their derby on Saturday 15 March, the biggest match on the city’s school rugby calendar. Let’s just say: HUGE game ahead! Read More →
Coca Cola T20 cricket: Kingswood victims of their own success
A short while back I blogged about how jacked up Kingswood were with their preseason rugby preparations. In spite of every one of the rugby players in their 1st XV squad being a dual sportsman, the little Grahamstown co-ed private school had managed to organise their 1st XV squad well ahead of other bigger high schools from the Eastern Cape. Now much closer to the start of the rugby season well laid plans are slightly derailed. Read More →
Over-age school rugby player Siyabonga Tom: all you see is green & white, green & white, green & white!
Before becoming South African schoolboy rugby’s most well-known over-age fraudster, TV audiences might have seen Siyabonga Tom wearing the green jersey and white shorts of Glenwood or perhaps the green jersey and white shorts of the SA Schools team. This past weekend he was back on TV, wearing the number 21 for Spring Rose from the Eastern Province in the Cell C Community Cup. Read More →
New coach has Hilton College training twice a day
If there were any doubts about Hilton College being able to maintain the same standard of rugby perseverance that was experienced under their former professional head coach Brad Macloed-Henderson, these must now surely be cast aside by reports that under new teacher-coach AC Blume, 1st XV hopefuls are being put through their paces sometimes twice a day in preparation for the private school’s season of 13 games.

So far so good for Kearsney ahead of Northwood game
Kearsney returned home from their short annual tour of Northern Natal with two confidence boosting wins under the belt. The results in themselves against Vryheid High (57-0) and Pionier (35-10) are probably not as significant as what the coaches and players achieved in terms of building team spirit, developing cohesion, gaining match fitness and working on game plans in live match conditions.
Prior to the tour, Kearsney started with an encouraging 29-3 win against the hosts at the Voortrekker Night Series. Read More →
First Thumbsuck Rankings of 2014
As you know the SchoolBoyRugby Blog Thumbsuck had to fight off strong competition from another school rugby ranking system available in South Africa to claim the title of worst in 2013. So I figured the only way to ensure that we claim bottom spot no contest in 2014, its to allow you the bloggers and readers to contribute as well. Read More →
