Cardiff Blues North under 16s have finalised their squad of 28 players after a competitive final trial at Abercwmboi RFC involving 45 players from the initial identification process.
Regional Performance Manager Gafyn Cooper said,
"The last trial match was of a very high standard and all players on display gave their all in an effort to be selected which made our jobs as coaches a very difficult one. However we feel that we have made the right choices on the evidence of the past few weeks of trials and development sessions."
Players who are not selected will now feature in the Blues North B team which will be managed by Carl Scales. All players details have been forwarded to Carl Scales and they will be contacted soon.
