The Living School Sport Encyclopaedia

--:--
Few people (if any) in South Africa can match Hannes Nienaber's incredible knowledge of all things school sports. Creator of the School of Rugby website (now part of SuperSport Schools), Hannes is heading up the reporting and research at SuperSport Schools this year.

Find out what it's like diving into the archives or who played wing fifty years ago for a small school in Upington that no longer exists... Tim and Hannes also go head-to-head in the first round of the SSS Champions Quiz. We're calling it the Champions Quiz since it's much harder than usual - it has to be with Hannes competing :).
