After representing Ulster Schools  against Connacht & Leinster Justin Rea retained his spot at out half  and will play against Munster schools this weekend at Thomond Park in Limerick.

On Friday year 13 student Kelvin Hamilton got fantastic news that he'd been called up to play for the Ulster  U19 Schools squad heading to England to play the Exiles on Sunday.  Kelvin will join former Down High Student Matthew McKeown  on this squad.

A number of past pupils from Down High have also been playing on older representative sides of late. John Donnan and Aaron Cairns have played for Ulster U20's and Matthew McKeown with the U19s. Match reports from some of their recent games can be found here.
