St.John's Festival fixtures & teams

The 20th annual St.John's College Easter Rugby Festival is set to get underway this weekend in Johannesburg.

 

The famous Easter rugby week will see some of the finest quality schoolboy 1st XV's making their way from all parts of the country to contest in some mouth-watering clashes. No less than six games will be contested every day over a three day period.

 

This year's tournament will see the inclusion of a touring side from Italy to join the event, as well as a Lions XV who will be wanting to show what they are made of.

 

The main game on Day Two will be a highly contested Paul Roos outfit taking on Johannesburg based Jeppe, while another game to look out for is the hosts playing against Hilton College of the Kwa-Zulu Natal midlands.

 

Day Three poses some real must-watch matches, with two monstrous north south battles between Garsfontein and Paarl Boys' High as the main fixture of the day, and Monument taking on Paul Roos.
