Reebok and the Wooden Spoon Society have joined forces with the WRU to mark the achievements of the under 21 squad. Each player will be presented with a commemorative jersey and a piece of crystal glass.

The players will be the guests of the WRU at tomorrow’s match with the presentations being made in one of the hospitality areas.

“Paul and his under 21 team did Wales proud last season in winning the Grand Slam,” said WRU Chief Executive David Moffett.

“They also provided genuine hope for the future success of Welsh international rugby and we are delighted to honour them with this special occasion.”
