Six Chiefs Academy Players Selected for England U17s Camp

Six Chiefs Academy players have been selected for a 57-man England U17s development camp.

Head coach Jonathan Pendlebury and assistant coach Will Parkin have confirmed a cohort for this weekend’s England U17 Men’s camp.

The development camp, hosted at St. George’s Park, sees two separate squads assemble in as many days in Burton-upon-Trent.

The U17 Men’s team reconvene at Hartpury College on Thursday 8th May for a four-day camp.

Will Parkin said: “As we reach the apex of our season at U18 level, this weekend offers a window for our staff to integrate some new faces to our pathway. 

“The focus of our spring U17 Men’s camps is to welcome a number of players to the pathway for the first time. As it is for all our pathway groups, this camp will be all around the players developing and getting better within our environment here at England.

"What we also have ahead of us are upcoming camps in May with a fixture against Hartpury, as we start to prepare for what lies ahead in the summer with a tour to South Africa. This is a chance for some of these players to put their hands up ahead of that.

“The programme for each day is designed to be an intense introduction to the expectations we set for the U18 Men’s team with two rugby sessions, review and S&C all being covered. The staff and I are eager to see how the team come into a new environment, put themselves under pressure and own their own development.”
