\"NewsGGreyHigh\"Selborne College and Grey High School are certainly not strangers on the rugby field, they have met for battle regularly and have each gone through periods of consecutive victories. The rivalry started nearly a hundred years ago and shows no signs of slowing down.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Going back to 2009, Selborne held on to the title for three years up until 2011. Grey then flipped the script, winning three games from 2012 to 2014.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This pattern has continued throughout their history, Grey even held an eight-game winning streak from 2000 until 2008.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After a two-year hiatus, the competition recommenced in 2022, this saw Grey go on to take a 32-26 victory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Both sides have of course been strong this year, with Selborne leading by 10 wins to 9.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, both schools were represented by one of their players on the SA Schools \u2018A\u2019 side. Zuko Poswa, of Selborne College, and Imaani Pemba, of Grey High School.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pemba will form part of the SA u18 squad that takes on France on the 15<\/span>th<\/span> of August and England on the 19<\/span>th<\/span> of August.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Other fixtures in the Eastern Cape this weekend include Graeme College vs Muir College and Cambridge High School vs Queen\u2019s College, amongst others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Graeme College will also have one of their players, Bathlo Hlekani, form part of the SA U18 squad that takes on the international rivals later this month.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
