8 year old Ethan's selection for Ireland at U12 level capped off a fantastic year for one of Ulster's most promising talents. He attacked the tournament with his usual swashbuckling approach and scored an impressive 3 points out of 6. The Irish U12's finished 2nd in the competition only 0.5 points behind the Scottish team.
