Wales U20 head coach Gareth Williams has named his side to take on Scotland U19 at Ystrad Mynach on Sunday (KO 2pm).
Cardiff Blues second row Teddy Williams will captain the side while his Wales U20 teammate Aneurin Owen will be second in command from the midfield.
“Although not a fully-fledged international, this game gives us an opportunity to run the rule over a number of new players to this type of environment,” said Williams.
“As this game is an extension of our U20s preparation, we view the game more like a ‘training’ international where players get an opportunity to taste international rugby.
“In a wider sense, we have a big season coming up with the Six Nations and a World Rugby U20 Championship to look forward so it’s important these boys hit the ground running.”
