Nice to see the talent not only coming from the Free State and Pretoria. Well done Graeme College, Brendan Grant and Pierre Jacobs.

@charo(charo)-1:
There seems to be no rhyme or reason, much as was the case with SA’s entry for this year’s Sanix World Rugby Youth Invitational Tournament in Japan. SA sent Marais Viljoen High School (who?), who finished 4th.

From the Wikipedia article on the comp:
“Participation is by invitation only, and the overseas schools selected by their respective unions to represent their country are generally expected to be of a high standard and among the top five in each country.”

Champion??Hamilton Boys’ High School??(New Zealand)

2nd Truro College (England)

3rd The Hills Sports High School (Australia)

4th Marais Viljoen High School (South Africa)
