The exciting news for rugby fans is that the majority of Monday’s matches will be broadcast live on SuperSport 5 (Channel 205). Fans will be treated to non-stop live schoolboy rugby from 07h45 till after 18h00.
The likes of Paarl Boys’ High, Grey College and Selborne College have all laid down early markers that they could contend for the number one spot on the rankings. With such tough opposition at the Wildeklawer event, any team emerging unbeaten will no doubt find themselves in our inaugural rugby rankings for 2015 which we are set to release next week.
