The Brumbies under-16s and under-18s Girls have named their squads for matches against New South Wales and Victoria this weekend.
There will be various matches between the three teams in Borambola next weekend, with the mini tournament serving as a pathway for aspirational female players from the juniors to Super Rugby Women's.
Junior Luteru will serve as head coach for the U16s, with assistant coaches Shelley Bradshaw and Stuart Stout on board. While Tristian Buttenshaw will act as head coach for the U18s, with assistance from Sherree Bush and Tim Hawke.
David Southwood, coach development manager at the ACT Brumbies, praised the addition to the pathway program calendar this year.
"In what has been a welcome addition to the junior representative pathway in 2025, our teams have worked diligently in preparation for these upcoming fixtures with player development at the heart of the program," Southwood said.
"These games serve as an opportunity to get more game time against higher level opponents and help players acclimatise to future programs, whether that be Super Rugby U16s or Super Rugby Women's.
"A note of thanks to all who have contributed to this program especially all our team volunteers and player families."
