Ruggas.co.za Draft 2023

 

Every year we invite six knowledgeable schoolboy rugby supporters, who can be impartial, to draft a 1stXV schoolboy rugby players quad and management team. The purpose is to see if six unions have sufficient talent to compete. A brilliant spin-off was the contracting of several "unknown" stars after being drafted.

The Rules:

  • You have a budget of R 100 000 000.00
  • You must buy a squad of 23 schoolboy rugby players, Head of Rugby, Head Coach, Forward Coach and Backline.
  • You may not bid more than R 5 000 000.00 on 23 players or coaching.
  • There is no maximum bid on four players/coaching.
  • You may not bid less than R 1 000 000.00 per player/coaching.
  • You may draft u/17, u/18 and/or u/19 boys that have played in the 1stXV for their school.
  • You may not "draft" a player out of position.
  • Your squad must include a second front row (#16 - hooker, #17 - loosehead, #18 - tighthead).
  • The highest bidder wins, however, if two "managers" bid the same amount the "manager" with the highest ranking will win the bid.
