‘A’ division schools rugby-12 teams, 2 groups

The schools season which is most likely to take place in the month of March see’s yet another twist in the tail, and a major one at that. ThePapare speaking to a member of the Sri Lankan schools rugby football association (SLSRFA) learnt that there might be a likelihood of 12 teams participating for the upcoming schools rugby plum this year.
After the close of the 2010 season Thurstan College and Science College saw them tie with equal amount of points thus creating the drama. According to one of the top officials at the SLSRFA, it was known that a whopping 12 teams would take part in the ‘A’ division which will be split in to two groups. Dharmaraja College who finished one before the last in the ‘A’ division will stay back in the same division while the debutants Prince of Wales College drops down to the lower division. It is expected that three schools will come up from the ‘B’ division which will include, 2010 table leaders St.Josephs College, and the two runners up teams, Thurstan College and Science College.
A reliable source speaking to ThePapare stated that there are a lot of issues in this year’s league and that they will be having a council meeting on the 15th (Saturday) to resolve these matters and go forward.
The schools season which is normally scheduled to take place in the month of April was bought forward due to A/L and O/L examinations. With the club rugby season being pushed back due to the Asian five nations, it will be interesting to see what stance the schools body will take ahead of the much awaited schools rugby season.
