2019 Junior Training Squads announced

The training squads have been announced for the 2019 Junior Touch Championships.

In all 45 girls and 59 boys have been chosen for the first two training days in January and February, with age group squads then having three further training days before the final teams are selected.

The Junior Touch Championships themselves are being held in Paris, France, between August 16th and 18th, 2019, when England will come up against their peers from across the continent in the Boys’ 18s, Girls’ 18s, Mixed 18s and Mixed 15s categories.

Twenty-five different clubs are represented in these squads, a reflection on the growth of age group Touch across England and the hard work put in by clubs and coaches alike.
