England Rugby Squad Announced for Nations Championship Training Camp
Steve Borthwick has announced a 43-player England squad for a training camp in preparation for the upcoming Nations Championship. The squad will gather at Pennyhill Park for a three-day camp starting on May 18. England's first match in the Nations Championship will be against South Africa on July 4, followed by games against Fiji and Argentina, all broadcast live on ITV Sport.
Among the notable selections in the squad are uncapped scrum-half Charlie Bracken and Bristol Bears center Benhard Janse van Rensburg. Bracken, the son of former England scrum-half Kyran Bracken, earns his first senior call-up after an impressive season with Saracens. Janse van Rensburg, born in Pretoria, qualifies to represent England after a successful appeal to World Rugby, making him eligible for his Test debut this summer.
The upcoming Nations Championship promises exciting matchups, with England facing tough competition from South Africa, Fiji, and Argentina. The squad's training camp will be crucial in preparing the players for the challenges ahead. Stay tuned for more updates on England's journey in the Nations Championship.
