Young Warriors ready for England action

Wing wonder Miles Benjamin will lead the way as stars from Worcester Warriors prepare for England action this weekend.

Speedster Benjamin, who has burst into the senior side at Warriors this season, has been named on the wing for England Under-20s as they face Wales Under-20s at Gloucester’s Kingsholm home tonight (7.45pm kick-off).

Benjamin’s fellow Warriors team-mates Jonny Arr and Matt Cox have been named on the replacements bench for the Six Nations clash.


Coach Nigel Redman said: “We believe we’ve got a good balance to the side with lots of pace in the back three, power in midfield and a very mobile and athletic pack. We’re very excited about working with this group of players.”


Meanwhile, for Worcester star Luke Narraway will make his England debut against Wales at Twickenham tomorrow (Saturday).


Narraway, Worcester born and bred and a former Kings School pupil, learnt his rugby in the mini/junior set-up at the club and was part of the Warriors Academy set-up.
