The oldest schools rugby fixture between Kingswood College and Trinity College which was scheduled to be played at the Trinity College Rugby Stadium in Pallekelle on Sunday has been put off by a day as this falls on Easter day. This match will be now played on April 25 (Monday) at the same venue.

Trinity College will be coached this year by former Sri Lanka, Kandy SC and Navy utility player Nilufer Ibrahim. They have played two matches and won both. They beat St. Anthony's College 10-3 and in their next match cut loose to trounce St. Thomas College Mount Lavinia 75-6 in their encounter for the Canon R.S. de Saram Trophy.

The Kingswoodians on the other hand too have a new coach in former Sri Lanka, Kandy SC and CR and FC full back and ace place kicker Nalaka Weerakkody.

In their opening match they trounced Thurstan College 69-5 and later beat their traditional rivals Dharmaraja College 19-5 to retain the William Weerasinghe Memorial Trophy.
