Correct!


And let's use the former-transvaal area which is now Gauteng, Mpumalanga, Limpopo and North-West Province.  We still have a yearly School tournament which was the old "Directors Trophy", but has since then advanced into a multi-tiered series.  Schools (All of them Public/semi-public) are bracketed together based on the amount of kids they have in the school.  So we have a group of Makro schools (which is schools with more than 1500 kids) Big Schools (between 1000 and 1500 kids) and so on.  In the end there's 4 groups, and schools in lower tiers who outperforms the others in their tier, can apply by form of qualification to enter a higher tier.


The fact is this model works great, as schools with more boys, inevitable has more talented players.  But it also provides Schools in the "Platteland" to play against big city schools.


Now I can promise you on any given day, the race quota for every match is 50% and higher.
