One of Tonga’s leading rugby schools, ‘Apifo’ou College, has won the 2014 inter-college rugby union competition at Teufaiva stadium park yesterday.
The 21-15 victory against Tupou College ended the rugby season peacefully after Police stepped up to the plate and make sure there was no violence during the rugby final matches.
Tupou College (Toloa) won rugby grades 1,2 and 3 while Tonga College (‘Atele) won grade 4 and 5.
Last week the schools rugby tournament was under threat after police had to intervene in a brawl between supporters of two teams. It followed by a meeting of Tonga's Secondary Schools' Principals Association to discuss whether to cancel this year's season.
At one stage, in 2013, spectators were not allowed to attend the competition in a bit to prevent school fights.
