The Irish U20’s Junior World Championship Squad enjoyed two very good days in Dublin at the weekend with noticeable game progress made from Cork last week. In particular the team looked to have made a big improvement in continuity and in control.
The U20’s featuring Ulster players Niall Annett (Capt), Finlay Bealham, Conor Carey, Iain Henderson, James McKinney, Patrick Jackson, Luke Marshall and Craig Gilroy faced a very strong Leinster Development Squad on Sunday afternoon 3:00 pm at Wanderers RFC with two Ruddocks taking the field against their “Dad’s” U20s.
