The Tests were played at Ulster University, Jordanstown.

Last year, Tinney won the Inter-provincials with Ulster, featuring alongside Raphoe team-mates Luke Witherow and Ben Wallace.

Tinny and Wallace previously featured for the Ireland Under-16s in the Volvo Six Nations Tournament being held at the BHV Push club in Brena, Netherlands, last summer.
