“Rugby Europe U20 Championship 2021 gets underway this weekend and like the U18’s event that was in Kaliningrad last month, skipped a year due to safety precautions. 

This November, the competition is back to bring you the very best players and nations at this youth level, the very last one before the main stage at international level.

Portugal, Spain, Romania, Germany, Czechia, Belgium, Russia, and Netherlands will face-off in a knockout tournament, starting on the 7^th of November until the 13^th. 

The setting will be the historical city of Coimbra, Portugal, where the teams will test their abilities and growth of those who are poised to be the next senior A internationals (some of them are already capped at this level), delivering an intense three match-day competition, pressuring players and coaches to go for glory. But who has more of an X-Factor? Who are some of the promising talents that we will get to see in the competition?”
