LANGFORD, BC (November 21, 2019) - The Men's U20 squad that will attend the selection camp at Shawnigan Lake School on January 3-7, 2019 has been named. 

It excludes 5 players living abroad who will be selected for the tour to Portugal in February: Tyler Duguid, prop at Narbonne, Scott Butterworth, flanker at Exeter University, Piers von Dadszelem, number 8 at Oxford University, James Biss, outside half at Saracens Academy, and Ciaran Breen, centre in Biarritz. Liam Bowman, centre for Ontario was not considered because he will be playing with the Canada U18 squad in San Diego.

This camp will kick off the 2020 season for the U20 group as they build towards the World Rugby U20 Trophy Qualifier in June.

The camp will start on January 3 and finish with an inter-squad game on January 7. A final squad will be selected following the camp for the team that will travel to Portugal for test matches on February 17 and 20th, 2020.
