Affies will look to climb from fourth in the current schools rugby rankings, as they are the only school in the top seven with a fixture this weekend.

The Citizen reports they will host 29th-ranked Pretoria Boys’ High School in a derby that headlines a fairly quiet weekend due to exams being written in some schools.

It offers somewhat of a breather after last weekend was action-packed, with Paarl Gimnasium suffering their first defeat of the year. It came against local rivals Paarl Boys’ High School, who overtook them in the rankings.

In the other big derby in Gqeberha, Grey College beat Grey High School 46-15, while in Johannesburg, Jeppe College edged King Edward VII School 39-31.

However, this weekend sees two more King Price Schools Derby Series matches. Eighth-ranked Oakdale Agricultural High School host Boland Landbou High School in the Western Cape, while Hoërskool Upington take on Duineveld High School in the Northern Cape, ensuring there is still plenty of action this weekend.
