Wing Cara Clarke and full-back Carys Cox, who played for England Under-20s in their win over the Army at Aldershot three weeks ago, will start for Valkyries Development XV in Saturday’s Tyrrells Premier 15s Development League match against Harlequins Ladies at Surrey Sports Park (kick-off 2.30pm).
Clarke marked her England debut with a brace of tries against the Army and returns to club action in a strong side as Valkyries build towards their return to Tyrrells Premier 15s action against Firwood Waterloo at Blundellsands on March 23.
