Top 20 UK schools for the #sport of #rugby

Parents often ask which schools have strong coaching in the sport of rugby, when considering their future senior school choices for boys.

Here are some ideas below (according to the Daily Mail Trophy Merit Table).

However, parents should bear in mind that rugby should only be one element of choosing the right school and most senior schools for boys offer the sport of rugby at a good level, offering opportunities to take part in a comprehensive fixture list. 

Academic level, subject strengths, ethos. location, boarding vs. day, strength of boarding, co-ed vs. single sex, to name just a few which are also important factors to take into account.
