U18 Men squad announced for Six Nations festival

7 Apr 2025

Head Coach Ross Miller has announced his Scotland U18 squad for the U18 Men’s Six Nations Festival in Vichy, France, starting on Thursday.

The 26-player squad travelled to France this morning, and start their festival against England on Thursday (kick off 12.15pm BST).

They then take on Ireland on Monday 14 April (kick off 3.15pm BST) before finishing against Spain on Friday 18 April (kick off 3.15pm BST).

Miller said: “The group have been in training over the last couple of months, and we’ve had games against Wales, Newcastle Falcons and a Scotland U19 side. Preparations have gone well and we’re excited to get going in the festival which we’ve building towards.

“We are looking forward to seeing how far this group has progressed over the programme. Our captain is our only returning player from last year so it’s very much a new experience for the squad. They will be tested with two four-day turnarounds, and playing against tough opponents.

“Unfortunately a few players have missed out through injury, but this is an exciting group that are capable of producing good performances and playing some good rugby, and the coaching group are looking forward to continuing to work with them and seeing what they can do.”
