The three finals of the rugby competition organised for the four southern unions by Die Burger produced three winners - Paarl Gim of Western Province, Augsburg of Boland and Itembelihle of Eastern Province.
The three finals were played at Hoërskool Framesby on Saturday.
Two of the matches produced clear-cut winners, while the medium schools' contest was a close one, won by a conversion.
In the Big Schools Final Paarl Gim were much too good for hosts Framesby They scored nine tries to none in winning 57-6. As has been the case with all Gim's rugby this season, it was a great team performance.
Things were relatively even in the first half but in the second, 'tackle fatigue' destroyed Framesby and the Gimmies poured through on the attack
