SA will play two home internationals against Georgia and a UK tour‚ where they will face Scotland‚ Wales and England. This is the last of three short camps before the training squad switches into match mode in the lead-up to the U20 Championship which will be hosted in the south of France from 30 May to 17 June. The squad also features three new players – Ruan Nortje (lock‚ Blue Bulls)‚ Zak Burger (scrumhalf‚ Sharks) and David Kriel (fullback‚ Western Province). Junior Springbok coach Chean Roux invited 37 players to the camp‚ including Willemse‚ Moerat and Du Plessis. Moerat has been impressive when coming off the bench but has yet to start for the Cape Town franchise. Willemse scored 14 points in the 37-20 victory. Willemse‚ 19‚ has been in excellent form for the Stormers and was named man-of-the-match against the Blues last week. Newly capped Blitzbok back Muller du Plessis has also been excused from the third training camp‚ to be held in Stellenbosch this week‚ as he is set to represent the SA Sevens in Hong Kong. The Stormers duo of flyhalf Damian Willemse and lock Salmaan Moerat were excused from the latest training camp as they are now essential to the Stormers’ Super Rugby campaign. The Junior Springboks will continue their preparations for the Under-20 World Championships in France without two of their biggest stars.
