A Creggs RFC player has been included in the Ireland U-18 rugby squad for the upcoming Six Nations U-18s Festival.
Leo Anic is among the 32 players included in the extended squad for the tournament, which takes place next month in Vichy, France.
Before that, a special Schools International against England will form part of the IRFU 150 celebrations and mark the 50th anniversary of the first schools international between the two countries in 1975.
The anniversary match against England takes place at the Mardyke in Cork on March 29.
Ireland will then travel to Vichy for the U-18 Men’s Six Nations Festival where they will face Wales, Scotland and an invitational side from Georgia.
Buccaneers’ Andrew Henson has also been included in the squad. Henson scored the game winning try for Marist College to help them secure their first Connacht Senior Cup title since 2013.
