Explaining The Divisions

🏉 Premier Division

For the top dogs.
This division is for 1st team club players bringing serious pace, structure, and physicality. Expect high-level rugby, big hits, and teams chasing the title — this is where the best of the best go head-to-head.

🏉 Club Division

Competitive, but controlled.
Perfect for 2nd team club players and competitive squads who still bring structure and skill, just without the full intensity of Premier. Expect quality rugby, good matchups, and plenty of pride on the line.

🏉 Social Division

All about the gees.
For teams that come together for the Klerksdorp Sevens experience. Whether it’s mates, colleagues, or old teammates — this division is about enjoying the game, the vibe, and making memories on and off the field.

🍺 Beer Division

Legends only.
Built for the slightly older, slightly wiser, and slightly heavier players who still have the magic. Less about speed, more about experience (and recovery time). Expect big laughs, clever play, and a proper festival atmosphere.
