The squad has been working hard throughout the summer period at the excellent facilities at the University of Ulster at Jordanstown with a major input from Ulster Rugby staff, under the watchful eye of Elite Player Development Manager, Allen Clarke, as well as the Ulster Schools' coaches, Richard Hedley and John Andrews.
The squad, who finished runners up in last season's inter-provincial series, have already faced Crdiff Academy, suffering a 36-19 defeat.
