The Buildcorp Emerging Reds Cup U15s teams have been confirmed ahead of September’s tournament.

Brisbane Grey, Brisbane White, South-East Queensland and Regional Queensland teams have been selected ahead of the three-day competition at Ballymore.

The tournament is the first official step in the Queensland Rugby pathway, with Queensland U15 and U16s teams selected following the tournament.

Queensland U15s teams will face New South Wales in two fixtures, while the U16s will contest the National Championships later this year.

Squads were chosen after club and school Rugby, as well as an internal trial at Ballymore last weekend featuring the best players from around the state.
