2023 School Rugby

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae Do you know whether Rotorua's centre Malakai Cama is related to Tomasi Cama? He made a good impression in a losing side, today.

[Bovidae]

@Stargazer No idea. RBHS always have a lot of Fijians in their squad, as well as a few that play RL too.

@Stargazer said in 2023 School Rugby:

• Auckland Grammar School 0 - 48 Hamilton BHS

0-31 at HT in this game. Hamilton BHS played with the wind in the 1st half. A few of the regular starters were on the bench. AGS only had a couple of potential try-scoring opportunities in the game.

[mikedogz]

A returning School back into the rugby scene in the future. Year 9 and 10 enrolments only so a wee while till we know their potential.

Kahu, New Zealand

Education and sport power couple take charge at St Stephen's

Yvette McCausland-Durie will lead school with husband Nathan.

[Bovidae]

St Peter's College vs St Bede's College will be played today. There were a group of St Bede's students watching the game at AGS yesterday.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae It was hard to find, but kick-off is at 2.30pm.

[Stargazer]

[Higgins]

Ah, so they are again coming up north on scouting/recruiting missions like they reputedly did years ago when they routinely pinched a lot of players out of Hawkes Bay. Interesting to note there were no representatives from Zero Fees Southland Polytech nor Otago University named as being present so they are not even hiding behind that these days.

A number of players in both teams will be boarders so this allows them to go home for the long weekend.

[Bovidae]

I was reading that the Sacred Heart (Ham) team has a few players from three other Hamilton schools to make up their numbers (Waikato Dio, St Paul's and Rototuna HS).

[mikedogz]

Rototuna has a team in the local comp with help from players from North Waiakto schools. Organised by Taupiri.

S.U.R.F orgainised a combined team last year.

More schools need to be proactive in setting up combined teams for both boys and girls. My sons School doesn't have a team for his age group. He is too old for U14 and not quite big enough for first XV. It was too late to organise a combined team by the time I found out. Rugby at Co-ed schools in Hamilton city has gone to shit. Only Fraser High has a first XV, Melville, Hillcrest, and Fairfield have one U14/15 team each. Rototuna JR/Snr High is the only one going alright with 4 boys teams.

There are a lot of colts teams this year so I think they must have few high school players.
