Mixed U18s - Squad Announcment

After a hugely successful #TouchNationals and Open Trials, the England Touch High Performance Team along with the elite coaches have announced players for the upcoming Junior Touch Championships in Nottingham over the weekend of 22/23 August 2015.

Congratulations to those players selected into the squad. This is the start of an incredible journey and this tournament is yours and your team’s chance to achieve something special that only a few have achieved, so take this opportunity and give it everything you’ve got.

Commiserations to those who missed out. The standard was exceptionally high this year and the choices that had to be made were incredibly difficult.

We are permitted to take 16 Players to the event and have a further 2 non travelling reserves ... the final Squad selection will take place just prior to the Tournament.
