Kearsney's 10th Easter Festival
It is Kearsney College's 10 Eastern Rugby Festival.
It is a surprise that it is only the 10th as it has such an established place in South Africa's rugby at schools that it seems to have been there always.
Every year it attracts strong teams and each year there is a great deal of interest, as it is seen by some as an opportunity for recruitment and ends with the opportunity of bursaries at the Sharks Academy for especially promising players.
Each of the three days starts with a prop school match.
