Both Kingswood and Isipathana will meet in the Milo Under-18 rugby competition on 15 September at the CR&FC grounds. This will be an emotional final game for Isipathana Head Coach Nilfer Ibrahim as he will be moving to coach the Joes outfit next season. The final game is against his school where he learnt his basics.
