Former Kearsney and Sharks loose forward James Miller has been selected in Scotland’s squad for this year’s World Rugby U20 Championship.

Miller played in Kearsney’s 1st XV in 2015 and 2016 and was in the Sharks’ 2016 Craven Week squad.

He now plays for Premiership club Watsonians in Edinburgh and qualifies to play for Scotland through his mother.

The U20 Championship takes place in France between 30 May and 17 June. While Scotland and the Junior Boks have been grouped in different pools, the Johannesburg-born Miller could meet the South Africans in the playoffs if both sides progress.
