Thanks to everyone involved with Rugby Canada's U20 Men's Team 

Karl Fix
Rugby 15s U20 Men

After watching most of the World Rugby U20 Tournament games I feel our U20 program has a bright future. These young men I’m sure are all looking forward to feeding into our senior men’s programs

Although our record was 1 and 3, two out of the three games (Portugal and Uruguay) we lost by narrow margins both literally right in the last minute of the games. Fiji, who beat Samoa in the final 58 – 8, were the only team I felt was a cut above us (and everyone else of course) although we were ahead in that game until the last 20 minutes.  
 
With 10 players from this year’s final squad and numerous others who were part of the program along the way still eligible for next year things look promising. 
 
Thanks to Jeff Williams and the entire support staff along with all the players who were part of this program dating right back to the first camp at Shawnigan Lake School for the tremendous effort you put in. We are all proud of you.
 
A further special thanks to Shawnigan Lake School for their generous support of this program along with all of Canadian Rugby. 
 
Oh Canada!
