The first step along the road to Western Australian Under 19's in this new era of WA Rugby will take place on this Wednesday afternoon (24th of May) with a North v South Trial Match at Tompkins Park.
Expect to see a hard fought match, if you are able to get down there, as there is some fantastic young players getting around in the Colts this year.
Australian Under 19's Reps from this year, David Pocock and Brett Stapleton, and the Under 19's amongst the Western Force Academy were not selected for this Trial to allow more players to show their wares before the Selectors.
Best of luck to all these young men, Selection Trials are always a stressful time.
The best advice I had was just try and play your own game and not try too hard.
The Selectors have seen something in your play to want to see more, don't undo that opportunity by trying too hard to impress.
The final WA Squad will be heading to Brisbane to compete in the annual "Transition Tournament" in July to attempt to continue Western Australia's two years undefeated streak.
Contact Rugby WA for kick off times etc.
