Ireland U18 & U19 Training Squads Announced

Training squads for the Ireland U18s and Ireland U19s, have been announced for the National Age Grade Training camps at the end of December.

The squads will train at the IRFU High Performance Centre from December 27th to 29th. This is the second of a series of training camps for the Ireland U18s that will build up to a final squad for the U18 Six Nations Festival which takes place in March and April next year.

The Ireland U19s will also have further training camps ahead of a series of matches against France and Wales in April.

Neil Doak and Brendan O’ Connor will coach the U18s while Kieran Hallett, Andew Browne and Jonathan Graham will take charge of the U19s at the camps.

Speaking about the selection Wayne Mitchell, National Talent Squad and Talent ID Manager, said

“We’re delighted to be bringing in these two squads in December and I want to congratulate all of the players selected for this camp. We saw some of these lads in action during the interpros and others who have impressed for the club or school.

“This is a great opportunity to train at the High Performance centre and to further their rugby development.”
