Paul Roos the Cape Schools Sevens’ favourites
Hugenote, in Wellington, is the venue for the High School Sevens Series, proudly sponsored by Toyota‘s Cape Schools Sevens on Saturday. The event features 12 teams in both the u17 and u15 age groups.
Paul Roos (PRG), who made the u17 semi-finals of the Marius Schoeman Sevens last weekend in Paarl, would probably be most people’s favourite to take out the u17 and u15 titles.
Their u15 side laid waste to their pool in Paarl, but were shocked by HTS Drostdy in the Cup quarterfinals. The Donkeys went on to lose by seven points in the final against Paarl Boys’ High.

In Wellington, there’s no Paarl Gimnasium or Paarl Boys’ High to deal with and Boland Landbou will be competing in the u15 competition only, although they have two teams entered.
The hosts, Hugenote gave PRG a tough game in the playoffs of the u15 event at the Marius Schoeman Sevens, but they face a difficullt challenge against Durbanville in their pool.
In the u17 event, Pool B, featuring Durbanville, Worcester Gim, and the Forward Foundation, looks interesting. Worcester Gim’s traditional running game is particularly well suited to Sevens. Pool C, with Parel Vallei, Hugenote, and the JAG Foundation is another that appears to be up for grabs.
At the Marius Schoeman Sevens, Hugenote held Durbanville to a draw in pool action, but they were well beaten by Paul Roos. Parel Vallei, meanwhile, performed strongly, beating Porterville and Garsfontein in their pool games and losing narrowly to Stellenberg.
