@BOG: Grey onder 16A 33 Paarl Gim 10. Grey onder 15A 18 Stellenberg 5.
The Kwaggas have a very strong squad, but are battling with a few injuries to key players. Hope it will be sorted by the weekend. Looking forward to a great weekend
@BOG:
meant English medium schools, i.e. schools that teach in English (only). Not an issue though, just something I noticed. Looks like a tough list. Pity it’s on the same weekend as Tony Stoops…I would have made the trip to Paarl with the lightie.
Yeah Selborne had quite a powerful under 15 group last year. Would have expected them to be in this mix
@Playa: Up the proletariat ! There are several schools there with English, Afrikaans, Portuguese, Greek, Hebrew, Xhosa, Zulu, Sotho and a few other language speakers as learners, GCB being one of them.
Interesting that they have determined the full fixture list up front. In the past they used to set the fixtures after each day on a strength vs strength basis culminating in the top performing sides playing each other on the final day.
I notice that Selborne is not there. Last year, they were certainly one of the stronger U15 teams in the country. Sien die laaste wedstryd word in n lemoenboord beslis, of hoe?
@Tarpeys: Not just the private schools, but the English schools as well…
An outstanding tournament in a great setting. I sincerely hope MHS have a decent U16 side this year with fixtures against Gimmies and Paarl Boys.
Michaelhouse representing the private schools there. Good to see. This festival is not for the faint hearted.
I see Glenwood are not going again this year, does it clash with the tourno at Glenwood?
The Wildeklawer of u16 rugby and the way things are going, it’s slowly but surely becoming the most important festival on the calendar from a recruiting for rugby after school point of view
