Potential stars of the future will get their chance to steal the limelight over the coming three weeks as the 2025 World Rugby U20 Championship takes place in Italy.
But for Wales Under-20s prop Louie Trevett, the message for the tournament, and indeed for his career, is simple.
Just be yourself.
His side kick-start their campaign against Argentina at the Payanini Center in Verona on Sunday.
Richard Whiffin's side then face last year's runners-up France at Rovigo's Stadio Mario Battaglini on July 4 before rounding off the group stage against Spain - who are making their second appearance in the tournament following their debut last year - back in Verona five days later.
With just 12 teams competing, the stakes are incredibly high from the word go.
The three four-team pool winners will advance to the semi-finals - with the best-placed second-ranked team (fourth seed) also progressing.
The remainder will go on to take part in the ninth-place or fifth-place bracket.
And Trevett is fully aware of the scale of the opportunity that he and his Welsh team-mates have in front of them.
"It's a big deal for all of us," said the loosehead prop.
"Some of the boys were unlucky not to go last year through injuries or not playing a lot.
"When this one came around, I thought, 'I want to be involved in the Six Nations and the World Championship.
"When the squad was announced, I was just buzzing.
"As a squad, we want to challenge ourselves as to where we are as a 20s squad, there's no better place to be to do that."

France are overwhelming favourites in Pool B, with Wales' young guns suffering a hefty 63-19 loss to Les Bleus in their Six Nations opener in February.
But Wales ended that campaign with three victories from their five matches, the most notable of which saw them defeat rivals England 23-13 at the Arms Park in game week five.
Ahead of the summer tournament, Trevett has been taking inspiration from fellow prop Ellis Genge at Bristol Bears as he bids to follow the path of the 30-year-old Englishman - now a seasoned international and a British and Irish Lion.
"It's probably a cliche because he's in my position, but he's captained his country, he's now a Lion. He's an insane rugby player," Trevett said of Genge.
"When I first went there, I wasn't scared, but I didn't know what he was going to be like.
"He was my hero growing up. When you get signed there, you want to make a good impression and straight away I got on really well with him.
"He's always giving me tips, saying what I can do better. Every now and again he stops in the academy changing room with an old pair of boots for me."
Trevett - who started his career at St Albans - has taken numerous words of wisdom from the 71-cap England forward.
But the 20-year-old prop did not hesitate when asked what the most vital piece of advice he had taken from his mentor was.
"Just be yourself. If people like you, they like you. If they don't, they don't," Trevett said of Genge's advice.
Wales may well find the going tough when it comes to competing at the business end of the upcoming tournament, but Trevett is hell-bent on going about his business his way, no matter what others may think.
