The two sides face off against one another in the opening round of fixtures of the 2025 Six Nations Women’s Summer Series at the Centre for Sporting Excellence in Ystrad Mynach, Caerphilly, South Wales.
It is the second edition of the U20 tournament, which debuted in Italy last year, when England won two of their three matches.
Twenty-year-old centre Hyett, who tasted Premiership Women’s Rugby glory with Gloucester Hartpury earlier this year, is keen for England to focus on their own game and let everything else take care of itself.
“I’m excited for [the Scotland game] and I think it’ll be a really good battle,” said Worcester native Hyett.
“We know they’re going to be physical and turn up on the day, but it’s just about playing our game and doing what we’re good at.
“It’s a really good chance for this U20 group to showcase what they can do. We’ve been working really hard this past six or seven months and it’s exciting to show what we’re about on the pitch.”
Following on from the 2024 Women’s Summer Series, 14 players across the six countries went on to achieve senior honours during the 2025 Guinness Women’s Six Nations, including England’s Lilli Ives Campion.
And Hyett, who took up rugby aged four after growing up with three brothers who all played the sport, highlighted the importance of the Women’s Summer Series for giving players the opportunity to stand out and to use it as a springboard to break into the senior team.
“In the top bracket of the older year of U20s, it’s a good step and good time to prepare yourself for senior rugby, whether that’s for PWR or the Red Roses. It’s everyone’s dream to play for the Red Roses,” she added.
“Senior coaches are watching this, and we’ve already seen players like Millie David, Sarah Parry and Lilli too kick on, so it’s great that progression is there.”
With women’s rugby on an upward trajectory, the 2025 Six Nations Women’s Summer Series is a big chance for stars of the future to gain vital international experience, graduate along the development pathway, while also inspiring a new generation of rugby fans.
Spread across three dates during July, England will also face Italy on 11 July before rounding off their campaign against France six days later.
Julie Paterson, Chief of Rugby at Six Nations Rugby, added: “The Women’s Summer Series is an essential part of the strategy and commitment of Six Nations Rugby, and the six unions and federations, to proactively support the creation and growth of opportunities in the women’s game.”
