Schools Top 20 - May 19

Upheavals and surprises continue in trying to rank the Top 20 schools in South Africa and the past weekend was no different.


We have tried to move up those who were most successful in their upheavals.

These include Paarl Gim (No.18 who beat No.1), Nelspruit, who had a huge win, Grey Bloem, who got back to winning ways with a big win in East London, and Michaelhouse, who ran away with their opponents.

The biggest victory of all this week belongs to Monnas, but they are already at No.3 and stay there.


Some teams have been moved slightly downward, but that is only to accommodate a team that did really well.

In some cases they were teams that did not play.


Those that have advanced up the ladder are Paarl Boys High, though they battled to beat Boland Landbou, Grey Bloem, Affies, Paarl Gim, Affies, Michaelhouse, Outeniqua and Kearsney.
