The three boys won their places at Twickenham on Wednesday evening at Franklin's Gardens when they beat nearly 50 other hopefuls in a series of rugby skills challenges. All competitors also received coaching from Saints captain Bruce Reihana and members of the Saints Senior Academy as well as goodie bags.
