The match is the first time Ulster U19s have faced an International U20 team.
The coaches have worked hard for the boys to get to this stage one week before the inter-provincial series starts. This fixture will provide a test for the squad before the final selection for the first inter-pro game against Munster at the new Ravenhill next Saturday (7th September).
