There isn’t a league or a knockout competition in KwaZulu-Natal, however with all the top rugby schools playing against one another on an annual basis, there is opportunity to compare the KwaZulu-Natal inter-schools results in any given season and determine who the top team is.

Over the past seven years fortunate school rugby followers have had the pleasure of witnessing these uber talented rugby players setting the schoolboy fields throughout the country alight. 2012 has been no exception as Maritzburg College’s Kriel twins Jesse and Daniel have both laid down markers. …

Here is the starting point, listing many of the players that represented seven of the top schools at under-16 level in KwaZulu-Natal this season.…

With the 2012 Kwazulu-Natal season done and dusted, it would be nice to get a feel for the players coming through from the under-15 ranks that are likely to represent their respective schools at under-16A level in 2013. Obviously it’s too far off to expect accuracy at this stage, so the aim is really just to obtain a list of contenders for starting berths and if possible get from contributors an  idea of who they feel the standout performers were during this 2012 under-15 season.

The 2012 isn’t quite over yet and the 2013 season is a long long way off but since there seems to be a fair amount of interest in who will be around in 2013, here is an incomplete starting point list of the SBR players that either represented or sat on the bench for their respective first teams this year. …

It would have been misleading to say that Glenwood played the perfect game of rugby to beat UK school Kirkham 33-5 on Dixons field but in many respects it was the perfect way to get their third term rugby program underway. The reason being, without stretching Glenwood too much, Kirkham proved to be worthy adversaries and tested Glenwood well in many departments.…

Following their mesmerising 48-24 performance against a seemingly shell-shocked Free State, the KwaZulu-Natal under-18 schools team now has to turn their attentions the Lions. A much stronger pack of forwards and a flyhalf who prefers to seek out field position awaits the KZN boys.

The KZN Under 16 squad had an excellent week at the Grant Khomo inter provincial tournament, winning 2 out of 3 games with the single loss being a nailbiter against a physical Eastern Cape side.…
