 The 2005 first  team comprised a a majority of grade 11s, some talented and enthusiastic grade 10s and only a few Matrics.  The team's lack of experience resulted in a very tough season.  The Master in Charge, Bob Keen predicts that this  team will enter 2006 "with a passion andhunger for victory" and who "understand what is required for victory"

"At junior level things are looking great..."  The teams "proved that it is not the size of the boy that counts but the spirit of the team that brings success."
 
Congratulations went to Richard Aignworth who was selected to play for the under 18 Gauteng Lions

RUGBY 2002

The 2002 rugby season has been a challenging one. The juniors struggled initially because of the decreased numbers of boys playing rugby, but because of their determination they turned their season around. The seniors had a good season and they entertained us with scintillating rugby at times.

In his first season as Head Coach, Mr Kops and his coaches produced awesome results with their First Team.

Tthe First Team was named Team of the Year and to the U14's received the Spirit Cup.
