Leinster Players selected for Irish Under 18 Trials
November 24, 2016
The following players have been selected for U18 trials based on their performances in the recent under 18 Interprovincial Tournament and in consultation with the interprovincial coaches. A large number of players have been selected in this panel, with one eye on player development for the 2018 under 18 Europeans, as well as selecting a squad for the upcoming 6 Nations tournament in England next summer. Irish Coach Gareth Borland went on to say
"This is an exciting mix of players to work with. There are 19 under 18 players, 5 of which are already working within the under 21 panel, while the remaining 17 players are still under 17. After the initial trial stage, we will select a training panel, who will work towards competing against the other top nations in Europe during the summer. The door will also be open for other players to come into the panel at a later stage, based on their performances as the season progresses"
The first two trial sessions will take place in Trinity Sports grounds, Santry, Dublin on 4th and 18th December.
