The England 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 Charlie Atkinson, Biyi Alo, 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.”
