BISHOP of Hereford Bluecoat student Oliver Frost has been included in the provisional England Under 16 squad for a training session at Castlecroft in Wolverhampton on January 27 and 28.

The scrum-half, who also plays for Herefordshire, is joined in the party by fellow North Midlands player and lock Graham Kitchener (Adams GS and Shropshire).

The Midlands will return to Castlecroft to play the North in a further divisional match after which the England selectors will announce an increased squad of around 70 players to prepare for the forthcoming programme of international matches at senior, 'A' team and 'B' team levels.
