They are unbeaten and take the top spot on the first U15 Rugby Rankings of 2019 and few would dispute that Paarl Gim are a formidable force this year and will be asking questions all season long.
However Gimmies are not the only unbeaten side on the table, Grey High School put St Andrews College to the sword last week to complete their fourth win of the year and Hilton still have an unblemished record.
Yet the truth is that we are still in the early part of the season, the minimum amount of matches has been set to 3 which means that there are still many teams that need to be added to the table which is sure to displace some of the current teams.
Bear in mind that the rankings formula makes use of several factors such as strength of opposition, margin of victory, margin of defeat, result (W/L/D), home and away status, actual points scored on the field and others in determining the rankings.
We are looking forward to a competitive season in one of the most hotly contested age groups so would appeal to all the coach and schools to send through your results to editor@saschoolsports.co.za
