It may be mostly quiet, but the schoolboy rugby fixtures on offer this weekend are no less exciting.
Boland Landbou will want to bounce back from three losses in six games, including a 49-21 thumping by Paarl Boys’ High last week, when they host Stellenberg.
Stellies are the team to beat after losing only twice this season.
Also in the Western Cape, Wynberg have a chance to win the Southern Suburbs Triple Crown when they take on SACS.
The defending champions have already beaten other contending schools Bishops and Rondebosch in the Cape Town tournament. If Wynberg go on to beat all three other schools home and away, they will secure their first grand slam since 2014.
Wynberg carry momentum from a win against Belville last week. SACS, meanwhile, suffered a tough defeat to Paarl Boys’ High.
