Neck and Neck at the Top: The Race for the School Rugby Title Heats Up!
This week’s School Rugby First XV Rankings paint a picture of dominance at the top, with titans Paul Roos Gym (PRG) and Grey College locked in an epic battle for the #1 spot. Both teams have delivered devastating performances, solidifying their status as championship contenders.
But the question remains: can this neck-and-neck race last? With the much-anticipated clash between PRG and Grey College scheduled for August 17th, the winter break throws a curveball. Will teams return from the hiatus with their match fitness intact? And how will Craven Week, the prestigious national school rugby tournament, impact player availability?
One thing’s for sure, the suspense is electric! This year, SA School Sports School Rugby First XV Rankings have generated record-breaking interest, making 2024 the most exciting year in SA School Sports’ 18-year history. For a deeper dive into the intricate workings of the SA School Sports First XV Rankings formula, follow the link. (School Rugby Formula)
A massive thank you to all the fans who have followed the rankings with such enthusiasm! We can’t wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds, with even more drama and intrigue guaranteed on the rankings table. Hold on tight, School Rugby fans, the ride towards the end of the season is just getting started!
