Boishaai’s Irish tour postponed due to Coronavirus

12-03-2020: With Ireland schools shutting down today due to the Coronavirus and SA’s government possibly on the verge of announcing a travel ban of its own, the decision to tour Ireland later this month was out of the hands of Paarl Boys’ High.

PAARL BOYS’ HIGH RUGBY TOUR TO IRELAND POSTPONED DUE TO CORONA VIRUS.

In an urgent meeting this evening, the Governing Body of Paarl Boys’ High decided not to tour Ireland in March any more. All stops will be pulled though, to continue with the tour in September this year.

According to the chairman, Mr. Ritz de la Bat, the situation was monitored closely but have now reached a point where it is not an option to visit Ireland in March any more.

With all schools, clubs and tourist attractions in Ireland closed down as well as all rugby in Ireland cancelled, it left us with no other option.

The School will communicate details to each learner and parent involved as soon as possible.

Paarl Boys’ High Governing Body

 

04-Mar 2020 :Paarl Boys’ High’s tour of Ireland starting on 18 March 2020 remains on schedule in spite of  the threat of the Coronavirus which is presently taking hold of Europe. Boishaai invited a professor from the Tygerberg Medical School (University of Stellenbosch) to speak to parents about the virus before they decided to go ahead with the tour.

Boishaai to line up against two big name Irish clubs

Hoër Jongenskool Paarl – Paarl Boys’ High 1st XV will take on the under-19 teams of Irish and European rugby giants Leinster (Dublin – 21 March) and Munster (Limerick – 24 March) as well as a club team from Cork (26 March) during their two week tour of Ireland.

Leinster senior team have won an incredible four European Professional Cup Rugby (EPCR) titles to go with record setting six Pro14 titles.

Munster have claimed two European titles and three Pro14’s in its various forms over the years.

Just like their New Zealand tour of 2017, the full HJS touring party will consist of a 1st XV, 2nd XV and 3rd XV (known as u19A, u19B and u19C in the Western Cape) as well as two under-16 teams.

    Hopenlik stel hulle net die Boishaai toer uit na September en nie afstel nie. Dit sal baie beter wees.
    Daar sal seker games afgestel word, maar speel eeder die games sonder toeskouers en toets die spelers gereeld vir die virus.

    Die vorige virus het 500 000 mense doodgemaak sonder al die op en af springery. Die een trek darm al op 4500….

    Die kansellasie van die Ierland toer kon nie op n beter tyd kom nie.
    Die kruppelende ekonomie maak hierdie toerkostes amper onmoontlik vir die meeste ouers om by te bring.
    Wel n ongelooflike teleurstelling vir elke seun wat die toer sou mee maak.

    Miskien kan die GalPille vir Bishops nou weer aanvat 2020, dit is nou as Corona nie die hele seioen in die wiele gaan ry nie.

    @Cappie: So, now there are 3 of you.
    What did Boggie do to you guys that make you think he is me?
    Here is what I think and I might be wrong.
    I started following this blog cause I like schoolboy rugby. And I saw Afrikaans bloggers taking each other out. They still do!!!! And none of you were able to tell me why? And talking about becoming personal – you all ganged up against me, just because you disliked what I wrote. So I presume Boggie did the same and that is why you call me Boggie.
    Nevertheless, after about a year on the blog I learned the jealousy (my conclusion) is not applicable to all Afrikaans bloggers. And having witnessed the conflict between Glenwood and DHS, it is clear some English bloggers are birds of a same feather.

    Cork Constitutional is ook die sterkste klubspan in Ierland, maar volgens my seun wat al teen hulle gespeel het, sal hulle bv weer nie so sterk o/19 groep he soos Blackrock of Leinster en Munster nie. Die local klubspanne is gewoonlik vir spelers wie se skole nie rugby aanbied nie.

    @Smallies: Ek weet van n groot aantal ondersteuners wat totaal gekant is teen die Ierland toer agv kostes, kompetisie en diesmeer gegewew die huidige ekonomiese klimaat (en die Corona virus)
    Ek dink tog hierdie is waardevolle ondervinding en ervaringe wat die kinders gaan beleef. Ek hoop ter harte dat die toer suksesvol sal wees en dat almal dit hartlik sal geniet.

    To make it easy for you, only Beet can do the policing.
    Are you one of the crowd, meaning if lots of people stray on the path you will follow suit because lots of people do it?

    @BoishaaiPa: I agree. Was looking for some info on the tour but all I read is a school bragging about athletics and a quarrel about girls hockey. A bit pathetic to post those here. Suppose they can’thelp themseves.
    Anyway, any further news on the tour? How strong are the Irish junior teams?

    @Cappie: … daar is seuns en dogters by elke skool wat ophou en dan blame. Dit is waar ouers ‘n groter rol moet speel, naamlik as jy begin moet jy klaar maak.
    My dogter het Menlo hokkie gespeel en die hokkieprysuitdelings altyd ‘n hoogte punt. Geen twyfel Menlo het een van die beste hokkie programme in die land.
    Jou veralgemening (negatief) kan by elke skool toegepas word. Die positiewe by Menlo oorskrei egter by verre die negatiewe … en daar is die waarheid!

    @AbsolutMenlo: My dogter was in Menlo en het verlede jaar gematriekuleer. Daar is baie waarheid daarin en ek weet hoeveel seuns en dogters het ophou hokkie en rugby speel omdat daar nie genoeg aandag aan laer spanne gegee is nie. Toegegee, dit begin ook beter lyk. Die afsluitingsfunksies gaan nie meer 50% oor die eerste span en 50% oor die res nie. Ek weet nie of jy ooit ‘n hokkieprysuitdeling by Menlo bygewoon het nie.

    Dit is so ver van die waarheid as om te se Affies gee aan hulle ander spanne dieselfde aandag as wat die Witbulle en Affie A-spanne kry.

    @Grizzly: Daai is baie waar wat jy sê. Ek sien dit ook by Menlopark waar alle aandag aan die eerstes en A-spanne gegee word, dan hou die kinders op speel. Ek is baie bly hulle gee aandag aan die laer spanne. Met die Virsekerbekerformaat waar alle wedstryde punte tel help dit seker ook om aanmoediging te gee vir laer spanne vir deelname. Paarl Gim se sukses is juis daarop geskoei dat soos in akademie hulle daarop roem dat elke speler geregtig is op top afrigting. Die agste span speler moet dieselfde blootstelling kry wat afrigting aanbetref as die eerste span speler. Hy is geregtig daarop, aldus Paarl Gim beleid. Solank Garsies daarop gaan bly fokus dat almal iemand is en dat elkeen belangrik is, sal die diepte met verloop van tyd ontwikkel en sal elkeen deelneem om dit te geniet. Sterkte met die ontwikkelingsprogram en ek weet Garsies is op die regte pad. Ek praat gereeld met Garsie-ouers en die die trots in die skool is finominaal teenoor so tien jaar gelede. Dis lekker om te wen, maar dis lekkerder om deel te neem.

    @Strepie: 800 plus,dink laas op die top 50 van BHP was dit 830.Weet glad nie die % rugby spelers nie maar nie naby die seun skole soos Affies,Boishaai nie.

    Die probleem le imo by gemengde skole,Gym uit gesluit die feit dat baie seuns top spelers in hul pos in laerskole was maar dan moet c,d,derdes,vierdes ens spanne speel.

    Dis nie vir hulle aan nie en hulle quit.Waar by seun skole met hul tradisies ens die seuns amper meer respek en “social punte” kry as hulle in die laer spanne speel.

    My seun bv was Garsies /16 A nr 9 maar was in matriek 4 de keuse.Agter 2 sa skole en 1 prov spelers.Hy is vroeg beseer die seisoen maar het al die intensies gehad om te baklei vir at least die bench by die 1 stes.

    Meeste quit daar want die speel vir die love of the game is weg,a span of ek het beter goed om te doen.Met die druk van akademie en ander aktiwiteite is dit egter waar.Die tradisies is by seuns skole oor meer as 100 jaar gevestig,elke nuwe inname word deur die huidige geskool.Gee Garsies en die nuwe skole kans,hulle maak groot effort om daai goed te vestig.So het my seun wat nou 2 jaar uit is laas jaar gedurig deur sosiale media aanmoedigings gekry om wedstryde by te woon en die old boys club uit te brei by Garsies.So dinge aan die gebeur…

    Omtrent die hele agterlyn gaan die jaar graad 11 wees.
    Ek verwag verlore teen Gim, Grey, Affies ten minste.
    Top 5 vanjaar sal n merkwaardige prestasie wees.
    Hierdie is n jaar vir konsolideer en herbou.
    Ek bly egter positief en sal altyd hier uit Namibie die Galpille 200% ondersteun.

    As die seuns of die skool moet wag vir n beter ekenomie sal hulle ook onmiddelik die Nood Suid toernooi, Grey naweek, St Johns en enige ander ver gane moet staak.

    Die hoeveelheid wedstryde is nie te veel nie. Die seisoen raak net elke jaar langer.
