South African Rugby 2016

The 2016 Currie Cup qualification series[note 1] was a South African rugby union competition organised by the South African Rugby Union which was played between 9 April and 23 July 2016. It featured all fourteen South African provincial unions plus the Welwitschias from Namibia and served as a qualifying competition for the 2016 Currie Cup, the 78th edition of South Africa's premier domestic rugby union competition. Nine teams from this competition advanced to the 2016 Currie Cup Premier Division, while the remaining six teams progressed to the 2016 Currie Cup First Division.

Competition rules and information

All fifteen teams in the competition played against each other once over the course of the qualification competition, either at home or away. Teams received four points for a win and two points for a draw. Bonus points were awarded to teams that scored 4 or more tries in a game, as well as to teams that lost a match by 7 points or less. Teams were ranked by log points, then points difference (points scored less points conceded).

The six main teams affiliated to Super Rugby franchises – Blue Bulls, Eastern Province Kings, Free State XV, Golden Lions XV, Sharks XV and Western Province – automatically qualified to the 2016 Currie Cup Premier Division, along with the three highest-ranked non-franchise teams. The remaining six teams qualified to the 2016 Currie Cup First Division.[2] Points from the qualification stage were not carried over to the second stage.

Match reports and other media released used both names for the competition.
  2. ^ All points scored in the Welwitschias v Western Province match in Round Sixteen[203] are missing from the top scorers list.
