The New Zealand Schools rugby union team, commonly referred to as the New Zealand schoolboys rugby team, is composed of secondary school students in New Zealand.

In 1980 the New Zealand schoolboys rugby team had their first overseas tour, to Australia.

Many of the players have gone on to play for professional clubs or provinces or for the All Blacks or other international teams.
