- 3127
Eddie Jones has named a 35-player England squad for a three-day training camp in Teddington.
The squad will meet up at The Lensbury tomorrow [Tuesday 7 June] as they continue preparations for next weekend’s match against the Barbarians and July’s tour of Australia.
Players who are involved in this weekend’s Gallagher Premiership semi-finals are not available for selection.
Jonny May returns to the squad after recovering from a knee injury. There are first involvements in a senior England camp for Biyi Alo, Charlie Atkinson, Freddie Clarke, Sam Jeffries and Patrick Schickerling. Luke Cowan-Dickie (knee injury) and Anthony Watson (calf issue) will also be in camp undertaking rehab work.
Elsewhere, analyst Joe Lewis has re-joined the England set-up after a year working with Scarlets. Lewis will take on a new role of training coordinator and will lead analysis work on special projects.
Jones said: “With a number of players unavailable because of the Premiership semi-finals, we’ve got the opportunity to call up some new players.
“It’s a great opportunity to learn about them and see what potential they have to play a part in the Australia tour.
“We look forward to continuing the good work from our last camp in developing this team on and off the pitch.”
England then travel to Australia to face the Wallabies in Perth (Saturday 2 July, 11.05am BST KO), Brisbane (Saturday 9 July, 11.05am BST KO) and Sydney (Saturday 16 July, 11.05am BST KO). All matches will be live on Sky Sports.
