The Irish team for Austria is made up of six riders from around the country.
The team was selected from the three major youth races, Rás Mhaigh-EO, Rás Na Nog & Kanturk.
The selectors were looking for aggressive riding, how riders worked as a team and results.
The six riders are: Keith Mulroy (Westport Covey Wheelers), Tom Moriarty (Kanturk CC), Cathal Gallagher (Errigal CC), Matthew Devins (Yeats Country), Sean Barrett (Kanturk CC), Jonathan Foster (Bohermeen CC).
