Following the Regional training camps over the summer and the Tier 1 competitions in September, no fewer than 16 Cranleighans have been selected for the Futures Cup and HIPAC (High Performance Assessment Camps) – the final selection process for the England squads.
Zoe Allchurch, Pippa Lock, Izzy Petter, Millie Regan, Amy Thompson and Amber Walton are all going to the Girls Under 18 Futures Cup, whilst Rory Calnan will also be at St Albans for the Boys under 18s.
Autumn Brown and Fifi Robinson, as well as Taylor Seager-Green, are going to their respective under 17s HIPAC.
Coca Hall, Freddy Esplen and Oli Clift are going to their respective under 16s Futures Cup, also at St Albans.
Rosie Hope, Tilly Gough and Tom Lawes are going to their respective under 15s HIPAC.
All of these will be taking place over Long Leave and we wish them all the best of luck.
This all follows on from the England Easter and summer programmes in which Zoe Allchurch, Izzy Petter, Millie Regan and Amy Thompson all represented England under 16 Girls. Harry Gough and Taylor Seager-Green also represented the under 16 Boys, with Harry actually captaining the side on more than one occasion.
Finally at the end of the summer, Will Warner was part of the victorious England Red squad that won the UK School Games.
Congratulations to all of them for their achievements and we look forward to many more in the near future.
