On Friday afternoon, as part of a double header, at Newforge Country Club, Ulster U17 Schools played the Eagle Impact Rugby Academy in a pre season friendly. Both sides had huge 30+ player squads, so the game was played over 2 x 20 minute periods & a 1 x 30 minute period, to ensure all players got game time.
Though both attacks showed promise in the 1st period, Ulster lead 7-0, the solitary score, a try under the posts by Oliver Neill, converted by Ollie Berry.
Ulster took the game to EIRA in the second period. There were some big carries by the forwards, which together with quick offloads, created space.
