Connor St Clair to cap for EIRA

07.08.2016. Goff Rugby. The Eagle Impact Rugby Academy U16 team slated to tour British Columbia next week has been named.
 

The team includes players from 12 different states, as well as England. Among the players of note: Tyren Al-Jiboori is the third Al-Jiboori brother to play for a major touring select side. All three - Michael, Malon, and now Tyren - got their start at Union HS in Oklahoma.

Studying and playing at Reed Weybridge in England are Aidan and Shane Barry, brothers to UCLA standouts Niall and Cian Barry. Kaipono Kayoshi is a speedy, athletic No. 8/lock from Granite Bay who could be an interesting breakout player. Jupiter Sharks scrumhalf Kyle Lazera is an impressive halfback and another to watch.

The EIRA U16s will play the British Columbia U16s on Wednesday and Saturday on the University of British Columbia campus. EIRA U16s and BC played each other last year, with EIRA winning both games 34-0 and 53-6.

The Carolinas EIRA Academy is run by Brendan Keane and runs in the Fall.  The details for the upcoming Carolinas Camp will be posted on NCYRU.org, shortly.
