The Canadian National Under 17 Team will be spending the week leading up to Easter in North Wales as they prepare for the Wellington School Tournament where they will face Portugal,Scotland and Italy, and as a part of their preperation they will play two matches against the RGC 1404 Under 17 Team on Wednesday 31st March and Friday,2nd April.- Venues to be confirmed-

Not surprisingly, RGC 1404 Under 17 Head Coach Mike Harper, was delighted with the opportunity to test the best young players against International Competition,

' The 2 games against the Canadians fall ideally into our Spring Training Programme as we seek to finalise our squad for this Autumns regional age-grade championship. It will be an opportunity for the boys to test themselves against what is bound to be a physical and enthusiastic Canadian team,and gain some idea of the work that they need to do between now and the Autumn.'

The visit of the young Canadians,who will be staying at Rydal School during their stay in North Wales,further strengthens the ties that link Gogledd Cymru with Canada and are most visible with the presence of a number of Canadians in the RGC 1404 senior Team.
