DROITWICH basketball ace Chris Dobbs is celebrating after being called up to the national set-up.

The 14-year-old was selected for the England Under 15s squad after final trials at the end of October.

He now moves on to a series of training camps with his new England team-mates, the first of those at the Coventry Skydome on November 25/26.

The Droitwich High School pupil plays for Avon Valley in the National League at both under 15 and under 17 level, while he is already a regular in the West Midlands Area Under 15 set-up.
