WP Schools pick three teams
Western Province Schools have chosen three teams - for Craven Week and the Academy Week for Under-18s and the Grant Khomo Week for Under-16s.
Ramone Samuels, Dalen Goliath, Sebastian Ferreira, Craig Corbett, Handré Pollard (named as the captain this year), Chad Solomons and Michal Haznar were all at the 2011 Craven Week tournament.
The WP teams are dominated by the Paarl Schools (Gim, Boys' High and Boland Landbou) and Paul Roos of Stellenbosch.
There are 50 players from those four schools in the 66 players in the three teams. There was at one stage a serious move to get these schools to be a part of Boland.
