Report below taken from Daily Post:
WHEN the senior RGC 1404 team makes the long journey down to South Wales for Saturday's game against Ospreys U20s, they will be accompanied by a new member of the squad.
Joe Simpson, a 17-year-old WRU RGC Academy prop from Bangor Rugby Club and at school in Rydal Penrhos, will be making his debut as part of the senior team.
Simpson said: “I was nervous initially to be invited up to this level, however I have trained with the squad all week and really enjoyed it.
“It’s been a great experience and I am looking forward to the game.”
Marc Roberts the performance development manager for North Wales, said: “Joe has thrived in the academy environment and has been hugely committed to his goals.
“He has worked hard on his physical game and deserves this opportunity.
“It goes to show that the academy programmes are working as they are accelerating players’ development and, although Joe has another year at U18s age grade rugby, he is already knocking on the door of senior rugby.”
