A 15-year-old North West boy is in a critical condition after being injured during a rugby match at a school in Sannieshof on Wednesday.

Netcare 911 spokesperson Jeffrey Wicks says the teenager was apparently injured when a scrum collapsed.

He was unable to move on the field. Paramedics transferred him from a hospital in Sannieshof to a private medical facility in Klerksdorp for further care.

The extent of his injuries will become clear today.
