Revised England national squads announced for 2020 High Performance camps
The revised squads have been named for the next stage of training camps ahead of the 2020 European Touch Championships.
Two hundred and fifty-four players, along with a number of development players, will reconvene in February for the first of six camps which will build up to the Euros themselves, which are being held at the University of Nottingham’s Highfields Sports Centre between July 28th and August 1st, 2020.
In all 44 clubs are represented from as far afield as Exeter, Canterbury, Wigan and Newcastle.
“We had two good camps in Nottingham and Barnsley and the selection meetings took a long time with plenty of discussion,” says High Performance Director Ben Powell. “This reflected the competition for places and everyone who has made the squads for the new year reflects their places.
“We're looking forward to reconvening in February to start building in earnest towards the Euros.”
