Will Grey College cement legendary status? New global schoolboy rugby title up for grabs

By Tom Parker

Followers of youth rugby will no doubt be aware of NextGenXV, the undisputed leaders in youth rugby coverage. The young media company is entering a new era in which they will take on the events side of the business - launching the Global Schools Challenge in partnership with long-time collaborators RugbyPass and Supersport Schools.

The tournament is set to be hosted at one of the biggest names in the schools game - Grey College - from the 14th – 18th of December this year, with games streamed live for international audiences available on RugbyPass TV and, for South African audiences, the familiar Supersport Schools app.

King's College from New Zealand and Strathallan from Scotland are among the first international schools to sign up for this tournament that features not only a unique player draft component available to all athletes of all levels but also further plans to spread the competition globally.
