Scotland U20 Name 24-man Squad
The Scotland Under 20 squad will play the Glasgow Warriors back-up squad at Murrayfield on Wednesday 19 December (kick-off 2pm).
Entry is free and access to the back pitches can be granted via Gate B at Murrayfield Stadium.
Looking ahead to the game, Scotland U20 head coach, Colin Robertson, said: “We have one game before we play France in our first game of the 2008 U20 Six Nations, and this is it. So for us, it is an important exercise.
”It will be good to see how our boys react to such a tough game against a team made up of professional players and how they deal with such an intense 80 minutes of rugby.”
Scotland U20 team manager, John Jeffrey, added: “We’re looking forward to a really hard contest against the Glasgow back-up squad in our build-up to the U20 Six Nations.
“It’s giving us a chance to mix the home-based boys with some of the exiles who performed well in our match against them in October.”
