Cardiff U18 have made nine changes for Wednesday’s Regional Age Grade Championship clash with Scarlets in Llanelli (KO 7.30pm).

Chadd Mutyambizi face a short turnaround ahead of the trip to Parc y Scarlets, having secured a bonus point win over RGC on Sunday.

Harry Beddall will once again captain the young Blue and Blacks, with number eight Lucas de la Rua the only change made in the back row.

Luke Evans returns to partner Gethin Howell at lock, while there is new-look front row in Cameron Tyler-Grocott, Saul Hurley and Owain James.

Harri Wilde makes a return to the number 10 jersey, as Tom Hughes switches to inside centre after a brace against RGC.

Wilde is paired with Josh Pearce at half back, with Hughes joined by Elijah Evans in midfield.

Scott Delnevo and Kodie Stone retain their places in the back three, with Tom Bowen handed the number 14 jersey.

The clash will be shown live on S4C’s online platforms. Following Wednesday’s encounter, Cardiff welcome Dragons to the Arms Park next week before the campaign comes to a close against Ospreys at the end of the month.
