The match will take place at Athlone Stadium on Wednesday.

The Western Province Hub is a development programme for which the province raises funds to place coaches in schools where rugby was not played previously. The coaches so placed will coach rugby but also be involved in physical education and life orientation.

The overseer of the programme is Jongi Nokwe, the former Springbok wing.

There is always the danger that this could be a mismatch as the French beat Oakdale Under-18 31-22 at Paul Roos on Saturday.

The home team's player list is not available but the French team is.
