1. Dharmaraja College Vs Trinity College (2013.03.17 @ Pallekele)
This match was the season opener for the both teams and TCK were the first to touch the line not for the first but for the second time too .. Then it was Trinity's game until that moment when we came back with three back to back tires. At the dying moment of the game TCK scored their last try and they couldn't complete the conversion though it seemed to be not so difficult. The final score was 34 all and it was a draw. That's for the very first time we hold them for a draw
Unfortunately the decisions of the veteran referee were not so fair as he did not spotted almost non of the TCK fouls.

2. Dharmaraja College Vs Isipathana College (2013.03.26 @ Bogambara)
Rajans recorded their first win of 2013 Rugby season by beating the 7s champions Isipatha by 35 points to 8. We have rewrote the history.
As we analyse the scores it gives an impression that we have won the match easily and we have shown great performance. But for those who witness the match could have seen our performance is not in top notch thus need to pay attention on lot of weak points (fortunately not very harmful in this match). Two of our players were shown "yellow cards". This trend should be addressed immediately or can cause heavy loss in matches with strong opponents. Anyway a day to remember ..

3. Dharmaraja College Vs Science College (2013.04.05 @ Bogambara)
It was indeed a great win for Rajans (21 to 20) in this season but the performance of our rugby team was not upto the expected level. Ball handling was poor and lost a lot of line outs. Finally we had a narrow escape. This is the best time to review our performance and make necessary adjustments before the upcoming match.

We recorded a good win in a clear margin against the Kingswoodians (33 to 24). The referee’s decisions were absolutely not upto the standards, The dying stage of the match was played almost in darkness and the match was played for about 85 minutes. The Kingswoodians could not bear the defeat so they were not present at the awards ceremony. It was not what we all expect from sportsmen as well as students. Last year they refuse to play with Rajans as there was a chance of a defeat. But this season they had no other option but to play against Rajans. Finally they were clearly defeated. We believe that the officials as well as the OBU of KCK should consider this matter seriously and teach them to bear defeat as well as the victory

The SLSRFA has decided to postpone the remaining league encounters which were scheduled for the 08th of June(Saturday) until further notice.
This decision was taken after a series of discussions after the Referees Society withdrew from officiating league games until adequate measures were taken to ensure security of the officials.
The SLSRFR requested the Schools Association to disallow spectators at selected games earlier this week, which was refuted by the Schools concerned. (Source : ThePapare.com)
Rajans secured the title today (22nd June) after Trinity College lost to Defending Champions Isipathana College in a close encounter as the final league game of the two schools in the season was worked off in the hills.

Dharmaraja Vs Kingswood Big Match 2013 (107th Battle of the Maroons)
TThe oldest Big Match of hill capital also known as the "Battle of the Maroons" between Dharmaraja College and Kingswood College was played in 2013 for the 107th time. As one of the most joyful event of all we (Rajans OBU Group of 94) celebrated in awesome style.

The match was played on 22nd and 23rd of March 2013, Kingswoodians won the toss and invited to bat Dharmaraja. First two wickets fell for a very low score leaving the Rajans in trouble. Then the 50 run partnership between Chandimal and Kavindu for the 3rd wicket gave some hope the Rajans. But the Chameera of KCK balled well and Rajans were all out for 133.
Kingswoodians opened the inning with Randika and Dulanjana but they were unable to make a good start as the scores read as 64/4 at the end of day 1. Finally the Kingswoodians managed to score 121 for their first innings and Rajans scored 80 runs for the loss of 7 wickets when the match was ended on 23rd of March 2013 in a draw at Asgiriya International Cricket Stadium

On day 1 defending champions, Dharmaraja college played against Ananda College and won the match by 24 to nil. The second match was with Wesley College. This was a tough match for Rajans as two players were sent off to the bench and Rajans played with only 5 players and still managed to beat Wesley by 21 to 17.
Some of the action captured through lens by The Papare photographer.
On 17th of February we play against Royal college in the Quarter Final match. And won it by 20 points to 5. Also in this match we had to play with 6 players as one was penalised. It was a tough game to play and with 6 players it was even tougher. Now it's the semi finals. It will be played around 15:30 hrs local time.
Semi Final : It was a close battle against the St Peters and could not over come their strength. Rajans lost it by 12 to 14. At half time it was 5 all.
Finally we came a long way and almost reached the title. This year we are not lucky enough to be the winners as we did in 2012, but our boys played so well.
Final : St Peters clinched the title
