WORCESTER prop Rochelle Clark will win her 100th cap tomorrow for England women against defending Six Nations champions France at Twickenham (7.20pm).

The 33-year-old forward will become England women’s joint most-capped player of all time, joining former hooker Amy Garnett in the record books.

Clark will be marking the milestone alongside fellow Worcester players Ceri Large, Lydia Thompson and Bianca Blackburn in the England starting line-up, while Laura Keates is on the bench.

Clark has enjoyed a remarkable 12 months, which includes winning the World Cup with England in France and being part of the team of the year award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year show.

She was also awarded an MBE in the New Year honours list for services to rugby.

“Getting my 100th cap for England will be the icing on the cake to a fantastic year,” said Clark, known to her team-mates as Rocky.

The Worcester prop made her England debut against the USA in 2003 and said she would never have envisaged reaching such a milestone when she began her England career.

“I got called into the England academy and had got an opportunity from Geoff Richards in 2003,” she recalled.

“I was overweight and unfit but he gave me the opportunity and I had a year in the ‘A’ team before making my England debut. Graham Smith, the England forwards coach, has been influential in my development.”

Clark has won the Six Nations tournament seven times and achieved six Grand Slams.

“I would like to win another championship – that’s definitely my aim,” said Clark, who has no plans to retire from the international scene.

“It will be lovely to share my special moment at the weekend with Ceri Large, who is my best mate and room-mate. I am excited about getting my 100th cap. Getting to a third World Cup final and making it third time lucky was a dream come true but this is the icing on the cake.”

Clark, who starred for England during their 21-9 World Cup victory against Canada, has become a club stalwart for Worcester’s Premiership squad over the past five years and is the team captain.

She originally progressed through the youth ranks at Beaconsfield.

Clark, who coaches rugby and is a personal trainer, said: “I love playing for Worcester and we will be looking for a spot near the top of the table next season.”

Meanwhile, physiotherapist Natasha Doyle has joined Warriors from Bristol.

As well as working with first team and senior academy players at Sixways, Doyle will take a leading role in Warriors’ junior academy centres.
