Rugby

Rugby is played at Suiderberg school in terms two and three. The players are fortunate to have two fields to practice on throughout the year. We enter five teams into our very competitive league. The boys that play Rugby are taught life lessons within this sport that they take out into the world once they leave our school.
This LSEN school is well-known in the Pretoria for its hard, running brand of rugby.

Rugby players will learn to:

• Make life-long friendships and create lifelong memories.
• Be gracious in defeat and humble in success.
• Be disciplined, focused, and dedicated.
• Respect themselves, other athletes, officials, and coaches
• Be proud of small achievements and work towards long term goals.
• Enjoy being active, maintain good health and will choose sport over any electronic device
• Experience’s disappointment due to an unexpected outcome, and to not give up.
• Experience opportunities that will build on their character
• Develop their abilities that will serve them well throughout their lives.

The rugby programme is integrated into students’ timetables.
We focus on performance coaching. We provide technical and tactical coaching through training, and playing.
