Red Army ready for battle against the Candies

King Edward VII School just hosted their Easter Festival and are wasting no time to take the field again battling Pretoria Boys’ High School this Saturday.

KES defeated Selborne College (20-0) and Hudson Park  (55-12) at their Easter Festival but they show no signs of fatigue.

KES will once again be hosting a sporting spectacle this weekend, although this time around it will be a two-sided rivalry between them and Pretoria Boys’ High School.

Pretoria Boys’ High recently faced off against Grey High School and came out on top by 26-19.

The Noord/Suid tournament also granted Pretoria a victory. Their first team beat Durbanville 35-31, having Josh Naude named Man of the Match. Although they lost to Paul Roos Gimnasium, they improved the score of zero at half time to a respectable nineteen, ending the game 19-29.

With these institutions bringing their different approaches to the field, it should make for a great match-up. Although the first team game will definitely be the highlight for most fans, there will be much more rugby taking place.

King Edward VII: 15 Tristan Maugeri, 14 Bryce Bennet, 13 Olunje Mehlomakulu, 12 M Methula, 11 Timi Oluwole, 10 Simphiwe Moyo, 9 Ruan van Rensburg, 8 Kebotile Maake, 7 Olwethu Biyela, 5 T Smith, 4 Thomas Beiling, 3 Joshua Aube, 2 Esethu Mnebelele, 1 Lesedi Moloi.
