Squad announced for Age-Grade friendly against Saracens U18

The Ulster Provincial Talent Squad (PTS) has been named to face Saracens U18 in a friendly this Friday 1 August at Osborne Park (kick-off 2.00pm).

This squad has been selected from players from our U18/U19 NTS (National Talent Squad) and PTS (Provincial Talent Squad).

Due to national commitments some players were not available for selection. Adam Boyd, James Gould, Jon Rogers, Connor McVicker, Charlie O'Connor andTom Bell were not available as they are heading on the Ireland U18 Schools South Africa tour.

Captaining the side will be Owen O'Kane, who has enjoyed being called up to the Ulster A side this season during their interpro campaign, as well as leading his school side to the semi-finals of the Danske Bank Schools' Cup.
