Schools Vase: U18 School Vase to kick off this week

BECOME A PATRON

The U18 School Vase gets underway this week as this fast-paced start to the 2018/19 Schools Rugby season continues.

 

Fixtures are taking place across all eight of sections, North A and B, Midlands A and B, London and South East A and B, and South West A and B.

 

The reigning champions, Langley, have moved up to the Cup this year after their stunning success last year that saw them dominate every game they played in the tournament. The side that they beat in the final, Wirral Grammar School, also move away from the Vase.

 

However despite those two missing there is still plenty of quality in the competition and it looks set to be a competitive competition over the next seven months.

 

The majority of the round’s fixtures take place on Wednesday, however two fixtures took place on Tuesday. In Midlands A Woodbridge booked their place in the second round with a 21-12 win at Thomas Mills, while over in London & South East B St Lawrence College were in flying form in this opening round, beating Kent College 80-0 to alert their potential second round opponents of their quality.

 

Games will also take place on Thursday, with KES Morpeth hosting Newcastle School for Boys in North A, while in London & South East B Dover Grammar host Ashford. Clayesmore, meanwhile, travel to Bournemouth looking for a good victory after their defeat at the weekend.

 

Friday will see Emmanuel College host Queen Elizabeth 6th form College in North A to round off a magnificent week of action.

 

Those not playing this week, most likely on Wednesday, will pick up their fixtures next week in the main, with fixtures in North B, Midlands B, and London and South East A all confirmed for Wednesday next week, while Sevenoaks host Maidstone Grammar on Tuesday 18th, with further games likely to be confirmed for next week in the coming days.
