Wynberg Rugby

Rugby Overview

With over a century of rugby experience and excellence, Wynberg Boys’ High School boasts not only one of the highest level schoolboy rugby teams in the country, but also has had a significant impact on school rugby throughout South Africa. Our learners have demonstrated excellence at provincial and national level, both in school and in professional capacities; several of our students have gone on to represent the country as Springboks.

Wynberg Rugby Festivals

Coaches & Teams

The Director of Rugby at Wynberg Boys’ High is Mr Nic Groom, with Mr Dave Mallett as Teacher in Charge. Our various rugby teams participate in a number of fixtures at various levels. The season officially kicks off at WP Schools Rugby Day, followed by a winter season of inter-school fixtures featuring the top rugby schools in the area. The students play both home and away games locally, as well as teams from further afield on tours and at Festivals. The Grey Weekend is a notable highlight of the year with up to 20 age-group sides competing annually.

Rugby Supporters Club

Supporting our Wynberg Sportsmen with passion has always been part of our School ethos.

With changing times come changing needs: we take great pleasure in re-launching our Wynberg Rugby Supporters’ Club, to raise not only support, but funds to ensure that every Wynberg rugby player has the very best our School can offer – facilities, coaches, mentorships, and most importantly, the knowledge that we as parents, Old Boys, and Staff are behind them every step of their way.

For many years during the 1990s into the 2000s, a Rugby Supporters’ Club thrived, based in the Bill Bowden Pavilion, Home of Wynberg Old Boys. Monthly social events were held throughout the calendar year, with proceeds donated to the School – we’re going bigger and better!
