Rondebosch continue to command the leading position on this week’s SA School Sports Top 40 Rankings although they were forced to share the spoils with a determined SACS team last week.

For the second consecutive year the Rondebosch team lifted the Cup at the SACS Tournament where they brushed aside the hosts in the final 5-2 in what turned out to be a wonderful display from two formidable teams.

St Stithians became the first team from Gauteng to win the prestigious Reddam Tournament when they faced the hosts in the final which they won 7-5 in what goes down as one of the matches of the year.

The first year of high school rugby is over for this year’s U14’s and what a great season it has been with many schools hoping their juniors can continue to show this kind of form in the years to come.

It has been a very tough season amongst the U15 teams and no other rankings has generated as much conjecture which can be put down to how closely the top teams are.

Wins for all the leading teams has resulted in a virtually unchanged top half of the table with Rondebosch still out in front of this week’s Belgotex Sports Top 70 Rankings.

Since the last publishing of the rankings some several week’s back there has been some notable movement that has taken place on the U14 Top 100 Rankings which sees Grey College in pole position at this late stage of the season.

Outeniqua who have led perhaps the most closely contested age group in the rankings for the entire season needed to beat Paarl Gim in order to remain at the top of the U15 Belgotex Top 100 Rankings.

Maritzburg College lost out on an opportunity to close the gap on Rondebosch and try one last attempt at snatching the No.1 position in the country when their match against KES was cancelled.
