I will agree on Trinity at 1 but then,... who has played More rugby in schools areana? Kingswood started in 1895.. (114 yrs before) and Trinity in 1906...(102 yrs now).Then comes Royal & Thora which just crossed 75 yrs mark...Bradby is still in its 60's.... Issipathana cellebrated 50 years on Rugby 6 yrs ago... SACk celebrated 50 yrs of Rugby 2 yrs ago... St peters have played over 60 yrs... Wesley played over 75 yrs...  But if you take who has won most of the matches? then we may ask our Grandfathers first, then our fathers.. and then you and me (of course.. I am from 1994 so I may know a bit more than you on the history mate)...Kigswood realized that they can be the champions of SL Rugby only in the year 1999...when they became the B div Champs and went on the take the President's trophy.. and again they set back one year but since 2001, they were vertually unbeatable (Beaten only 7 times through out the 6 yrs since then on 15's as well as on 7's) Their 15 a side was unbeaten over 5 years at a streatch since 2002 to 2005.. and then they lost a game each every other year which cost them the league in 2006 & 2007... and both times to St Peters and last year to Trinity... However,...they are still a power to recon with and this time for sure, Kingwood has the best chance of regaining the league from Peters after a lapse of 2 years.. which will happen on 22nd June....at Bogambara.. where the 2 oldest schools ever to have played Rugby in SL meet... FYI, we at Kingswood did simple things right.. when we fired the coach in 2000,.. we had no choices but to go with some expertiees... and Iqram Odeyar (ex Trinity) let us down halfway through leaving our then u-18 coach Ronnie Ibrahim to take over as the Kings had no option.. Ronnie was a tremendous success untill he was beaten in the mid season 2006 by Sanath Martis's master brain st.Peters at Royal complex..and that was the downfall as he was already approached by Thomians to take over... MR tried to beat Kings with Namal, & Yoshitha.. they failed... they took over our coach but we recruited his younger brother (The best Utililty player ever seen in SL rugby) Nilufer. and even with Ronnie with Thora, Rohan couldnot win against Kings either...We dont spent millions of Ruppes for the rugby team but yet we ensure that they look smart and nice with all basic requirements fullfilled... and mind you they still eat Kos & Del and Manyokka with the Hostel Soup, Meat and eggs,.after prcatices..and NOT Chocolate, energizers, Milk...and Pills... Now its time for Nilufer's success times with Kingswood.....</blockquote>
