The South African national under-18 rugby union team – often referred to as the South African Schools rugby union team – is the under-18 side of the South Africa national rugby union team.

The team is selected every year at the conclusion of the various rugby union youth weeks and are predominantly made up from players that played at the Under-18 Craven Week tournament for their respective sides.

Under-19 International Series

The South African Schools team doesn't formally participate in any competitions, but they do play matches against either local or international opposition. Since 2012, the South African Under-18 team hosted an International Series (until 2015 known as the Under-18 International Series, since 2016 as the Under-19 International Series), with teams from England, France, Italy and Wales regular competitors in the series. Matches in this series take place at various venues in the Western Cape region.
