2012 Varsity Rugby | |
---|---|
The 2012 Varsity Cup was contested from 6 February to 9 April 2012. The tournament (also known as the FNB Varsity Cup presented by Steinhoff International for sponsorship reasons) was the fifth season of the Varsity Cup, an annual inter-university rugby union competition featuring eight South African universities.
The tournament was won by Template:Rut UP Tuks for the first time; they beat Template:Rut Maties 29–21 in the final played on 9 April 2012. Template:Rut TUT Vikings were automatically relegated to the second-tier Varsity Shield competition for 2013, but Template:Rut UCT Ikey Tigers won their relegation play-off match against Template:Rut CUT Ixias to remain in the Varsity Cup for 2013.
Scoring
All four 2012 Varsity Rugby competitions will use a different scoring system to the regular system. Tries will be worth five points as usual, but conversions will be worth three points, while penalties and drop goals will only be worth two points.[1]

Competition Rules
There are eight participating universities in the 2012 Varsity Cup. These teams will play each other once over the course of the season, either home or away.
Teams receive four points for a win and two points for a draw. Bonus points are awarded to teams that score four or more tries in a game, as well as to teams that lose a match by seven points or less. Teams are ranked by log points, then points difference (points scored less points conceded).
The top four teams will qualify for the title play-offs. In the semi-finals, the team that finishes first will have home advantage against the team that finishes fourth, while the team that finishes second will have home advantage against the team that finishes third. The winners of these semi-finals will play each other in the final, at the home venue of the higher-placed team.
The team that finishes eighth in the Varsity Cup will be relegated to the 2013 Varsity Shield. The team that finishes seventh in the Varsity Cup will play a promotion/relegation match against the second-placed Varsity Shield team for a place in the 2013 Varsity Cup.[2]
