The NSW Rugby League has today announced the NSW Under-16 squad to take on the Under-16 Pasifika side at Belmore Sports Ground on Saturday (28 July).
The NSW-Pasifika clash will be the first meeting between the two sides, with the match-up giving more emerging players the opportunity to represent their state and heritage.
NSW will be looking to build upon their Under-16 Origin win over Queensland at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium on 15 July with the 28-14 win being a third-straight victory for the Blues in the annual interstate fixture.
