Connacht U19s To Face Japan

The Connacht U19s will face a touring Japan U19 side this Sunday, March 19, at the Sportsground (2pm).

Connacht Provincial Talent Coach Colm Tucker takes charge of the hosts with the team to be announced tomorrow afternoon.

The Japan team is made up of the best High School players from across the two islands in Japan and this is the second game in their tour of Ireland.

Thomond Park was the venue of their first game as Munster emerged with a 17-7 victory last night.

Following Sunday’s clash against Connacht, Japan will go on to face Ulster and Leinster.

Admission to this game is free.
