Nine Senior Cadet champions have been named in a ten-strong squad for the Presidents Cup which begins in Baku, Azerbaijan later this month.
All ten competed at last weekend's National Senior Cadet Championships finals at the National Stadium in Dublin where nine of the Baku panel emerged victorious.
Ireland have won silver and bronze medals at this tournament in the past, but Irish coach Jim Moore wants to see the boys in green go one better this time around.
He said: 'The Presidents Cup is one of the most prestigious tournaments in the world for this age group and nothing will come easy out there.
'We have won silver and bronze medals at this level before but no gold. However, I would be quietly confident that we can put that to right this time out, but it will be very tough.'
The Irish squad depart for Baku on 29 April ahead of the start on 31 April.
Meanwhile, the below squad are invited to report to the National Stadium next Saturday for training.
