New King on the Hill! Paul Roos Gym Takes Top Spot in SA School Sports First XV School Rugby Rankings
The dust has settled on another captivating weekend of school rugby, and the SA School Sports First XV Rankings reflect a changing of the guard at the top. After a dominant display against Paarl Boishaai, Paul Roos Gym (PRG) have climbed to the No. 1 position, extending their unbeaten run and etching their name in the history books.
The “Maroon Machine” operated with ruthless precision against Boishaai. This win is a testament to the commitment and talent of the PRG first team, who set out at the beginning of the season to uphold the school’s long-standing reputation for excellence. Their performance so far this season has been nothing short of exceptional.
While Paarl Boys’ High takes a well-deserved break after a whirlwind start, the top of the rankings remains incredibly competitive. A quick glance reveals a tightly packed group of contenders vying for the ultimate prize. PRG’s residence at the top won’t be a peaceful one, but their current position shows they have the potential to go all the way.
Another highlight of the past weekend was the highly anticipated clash between Grey College and Paarl Gim. This heavyweight battle lived up to the hype, with both teams exchanging points in a thrilling display of skill and sportsmanship. Grey College’s performance marks a significant improvement after their setback against Jeppe, and they remain strong contenders to end 2024 as the champion team. Paarl Gim’s home crowd witnessed a heartbreaking loss, but they will undoubtedly regroup and come back fighting next week against SACS.

This season of schoolboy rugby continues to offer edge-of-your-seat action and thrilling displays of athleticism.
One thing is certain: the battle for the top spot in the school rugby rankings promises to be an epic one, and we can’t wait to see how the story unfolds!
