With the majority of the schools now writing June exams, and the provincial schoolboys just a few weeks away from playing in the annual rugby weeks across the country, there isn’t too much happening this weekend, but the good news is there are some matches taking place.
And it’s hard to look past the KZN midlands derby between Hilton and Michaelhouse as the biggest match of the weekend. It’s a derby that’s been going for years and there are sure to be hundreds, if not thousands, of rugby fans keeping an eye on this one.
Up in Gauteng, the big derby between English schools, St Stithians and St John’s, is sure to bring in the fans and old boys.
There are also some big matches down in the Western Cape, with the clash between Rondebosch and Bishops maybe the highlight.
