Ulster U20 team to face Munster in inter-pro opener at Ravenhill

The Ulster U20 team will play Munster in their interprovincial opener at Ravenhill on Friday 6th September, kick off 19.00.

The squad will be looking to replicate the success that they achieved last season, claiming the first interprovincial title at Under-20 level in eight years. They have already claimed a successful warm up victory, storming to a 45-0 win over the Exiles at Queens University on 21st August.

Last years’ Schools’ Cup final captain Josh Atkinson starts in the backrow with Ross Kane named on the bench. Other Schools’ Cup winners from last year include Michael Lagan at hooker and Josh Bingham at outhalf. It will be a big night for Irish Exiles backrow, Frankie Taggart who will captain the Ulster Under 20 side.

All support would be greatly appreciated. Ravenhill gates open at 18.00, tickets are priced £7.00 for adults and £4.00 for under 18’s and students. Car parking within the Ravenhill Stadium ground is free on the night.
