The Leinster U-18 and U-18 squads have been named for the upcoming Interprovincial series which takes place in the Shaw's Bridge in Ulster from November 21 to 23. The U-18 side is predictably dominated by St Andrew's and Wesley players, given their excellent performances in the All-Ireland Schools.
The U-16 squad, though, shows some very interesting selections, rewarding Railway Union for the excellent youth work that has gone into the club. Five players from the Park Avenue club - including two apeice from Oatlands and Blackrock College - make it into the set-up.

best of luck to both leinster underage side
Should be easy for them, only Ulster to beat
Jamie Tobin will have a superb tournement...he is on top form for Wesley and YM, prediction for top goalscorer and player of the tournement!
Well done to Tony Spillane and the other Railway coaches.Great to see their hard work being rewarded.
Only Ulster to beat indeed! A bit cockey.Think you forgot to mention Munster who have a handy u18 side and are very fit.You might have to eat humble pie yet!
"Should be easy for them, only Ulster to beat". haha we ll see about that now.I love the way leinster hockey people are so arrogant.Wait till munster play leinster u18s ye might have to use yer hair straighteners after the hits ye get.
