Analysis of SA Schools Cricket, Hockey, Rugby & Water Polo Representatives for 2014

3 January, 2015 beet Stats 18

UPDATED
Far below is a list of 73 players that represented SA Schools in four of the major boys’ school sports being cricket, hockey, rugby and water polo.

The best represented schools are:

Maritzburg College : 6
Clifton : 6
Glenwood : 5
Grey HS : 5
Queen’s : 2
Bishops : 2
Outeniqua : 2
Daniel Pienaar : 2
Garsfontein : 2
Menlopark : 2

To level the playing field, for the provincial analysis chart below, each of the four sports was given an aggregate weighting of 25%.
Therefore the individual player weighting is arrived at by taking 25% and dividing it by the number of SA Schools representatives that sport produced in 2014 e.g. rugby = 25% / 30 players = 0.83% per rugby player.

Even with this change, the Western Cape region comes out on top just like it did in 2013 (click here for 2013 analysis) followed a lot more closely this time by KZN  with Gauteng third and the Eastern Cape making a respectable contribution in fourth place.

    @beet SACS is missing one more SA schools waterpolo player. Jordan Chait also made the SA schools waterpolo team.

    It’s debatable if waterpolo is a ‘major’ sport. I would probably put swimming ahead of it considering our recent success in the pool, yes not just Le Clos either….Ryk Neethling, Roeland Schoeman, Cameron de Burgh etc..

    @Playa: Not really. Then, I REALLY asked some questions!@beet: The SA sheep shearing champion was a Grey boy during 2014.(seriously) Can we include that for the purpose of this chart? Glad to see that this year, you have used orange for FS. Oh, and by the way, the tennis boys from GCB will be representing SA at some international tournament this year

    @BOG: Happy New Year Bog. May you enjoy a year filled with minimal Eskom power interrupts! :)

    The Chart is effectively saying: “This is still the off-season. Please bear with us until the real action begins”

    @BOG: or perhaps it suggests the Free State is about quality over quantity.

    Yeh, at last! A formula has been found to “prove” that the Free State makes absolutely no contribution to sport in SA.
