The 2012 season of the Digicel School Rugby Football Union kicked off at the Queen's Park Savannah, in Port of Spain, on September 29, with 140 players on show in a series of friendly matches.

Under the direction of coach Brendon O'Farrell, nine under-17 teams and four under-14 teams from north Trinidad took part in the matches on the opening day, impressing the league officials and convincing them that this season would be even more competitive than the last.

The 2012 league will comprise ten under-17 teams and eight under-14 teams from north Trinidad.

The Trinidad and Tobago Schools' Rugby Football Union is also in the process of developing leagues in Tobago and south Trinidad, which will be incorporated into the Union from January next year.
