12 Glasgow Warriors Academy Players in U20s 6 Nation Squad

Kenny Murray named his 35-man squad today for this years U20s Six Nations. 12 of those listed are current Glasgow Warriors Academy players.

Of the 18 forwards listed, five of them are from the Glasgow side. Props Callum Smyth and Callum Norrie are in amongst the forward pack, with Ryan Burke, Ruaraidh Hart and Johnny Morris coming in the back-row.

Centres Johnny Ventisei and Kerr Yule are in the group. Wingers Amena Caqusau, Logan Jarvie and Fergus Watson are selected along the back three with Matthew Urwin completing the Glasgow contingent squad as a fly-half.

Amena Caqusau was in the top five try scorers of the FOSROC Super Series when the FOSROC Future XV competed last year and will no doubt be looking to touch down the ball for Scotland during the competition.

Fergus Watson, Matthew Urwin and Johnny Ventesei were all part of the Scotland team that won gold at the Youth Commonwealth Games in Trinidad and Tobago last summer.

The Under-20 Six Nations starts on Friday 2 February when Scotland travel to face Wales. The game will be shown on BBC iPlayer with kick-off at 7.15pm. The competition runs alongside the Senior competition.
