England U18 Men head coach Jonathan Pendlebury said: “With many of the players travelling away and earning caps for the first time, the U18 Festival is an exciting opportunity for our players to grow and take ownership of their development.  

“The next month is a perfect learning opportunity for all involved to get better and explore week-on-week. Our messaging will focus on players’ individual progression as well as developing as a unit.”

England U18 Women head coach James Cooper said: “We’re incredibly proud to announce our squad ahead of what promises to be an exciting home Six Nations tournament at Wellington College.  

“Our staff, the majority of whom are sessional, have played a massive role in helping form camp experience and leading our players to high standards this season and I’m very grateful for their efforts.”
