Ireland Under-18 Squads Named For Mid-Term Training Camps

The Ireland Under-18 Clubs and Ireland Under-18 Schools squads have both been named for their respective training camps over the mid-term break.

The Ireland Under-18 Schools team will be coached by Leinster Academy Manager Peter Smyth, while Fiach O’Loughlin will coach the Ireland U-18 Clubs side, who will play a challenge match against the Italian U-18 Academy.

A number of the players named in both squads featured in the recent IRFU Under-18 Interprovincial Rugby Festival held over a ten-day period in UL in August. The festival brought together over 200 young players for a ten-day campus style festival that focused on player and coach development both on and off the pitch.
