The competition (also known as the ABSA Under-21 Provincial Championship for sponsorship reasons) was the top tier of 2015 edition of the Under-21 Provincial Championship, an annual Under-21 inter-provincial rugby union competition featuring fifteen South African provincial unions. The competition was won by Western Province U21; they beat Free State U21 52–17 in the final played on 24 October 2015. Competition rules and information There were seven participating teams in the 2015 Under-21 Provincial Championship Group A. These teams played each other twice over the course of the season, once at home and once away. Teams received four points for a win and two points for a draw. Bonus points were awarded to teams that scored four or more tries in a game, as well as to teams that lost a match by seven points or less. Teams were ranked by log points, then points difference (points scored less points conceded). The top four teams qualified for the title play-off semi-finals. The team that finished first had home advantage against the team that finished fourth, while the team that finished second had home advantage against the team that finished third. The final was played as a curtain raiser for the 2015 Currie Cup Premier Division final.

A third try for the Leopards U21s is seemingly missing from the match breakdown (this is also backed up by a 42nd-minute conversion being scored with no corresponding try), but has been included on this page. The tries for and tries against for the Golden Lions U21 don't correspond with the sum of tries in the match reports, plus the logs indicate that Leopards U21 got five four-try bonus points, while they only got four bonus points according to the match reports. 2015 Under-21 Provincial Championship Group A standings Pos Team P W D L PF PA PD TF TA TB LB Pts 1 Western Province U21 12 10 1 1 451 267 +184 59 36 9 1 52 2 Free State U21 12 8 1 3 475 265 +210 68 36 9 2 45 3 Sharks U21 12 7 1 4 323 316 +7 39 43 6 1 37 4 Golden Lions U21 12 6 0 6 411 284 +127 56 36 7 4 35 5 Blue Bulls U21 12 6 1 5 353 376 −23 49 47 7 1 34 6 Leopards U21 12 2 0 10 262 501 −239 38 71 5 0 13 7 Eastern Province U21 12 1 0 11 208 474 −266 28 68 1 0 5 Legend and competition rules Legend: The top four teams qualified to the semi-finals.
