Schools Rugby: Weekend Preview – 7s dominates Sunday, busy day in Scotland on Saturday

This weekend sees a huge amount of 7s taking place, with tournaments on Friday night and across Sunday, but there is also a touch of fifteen-a-side rugby too.

The bulk on the 7s takes place on Sunday, while the fifteen-a-side action is taking place on Saturday, with the majority of it happening in Scotland.

Friday

Friday sees Gordon’s School host a 7s tournament at both U18 and U16 level, you can see our preview for that tournament here: Gordon’s 7s Preview.

Saturday

Saturday’s action almost all takes place in Scotland. Merchiston Castle’s U18 Schools Cup final preparation continues with a game against club side Boroughmuir RFC. Elsewhere another Scottish giant, Dollar Academy, are in action against Dundee High School, who also have a game on Wednesday.
