The Edinburgh (including Midlothian and West Lothian) pathway development squads are confirmed for the Development matches in August. The players were nominated by the clubs and schools for the under 15 Key National Themes skills camp and thereafter allocated to one of the 3 development squads. Each squad will be involved in 2 games and 4 training sessions where they will aim to develop their core skills and have an opportunity to promote themselves against the other Pathway Development Squads from the East including the East Lothian Falcons and the two sides from the Borders.
 
Following the Development matches there will be a selection for the Edinburgh Regional Squad
