Four North Midlands players have been included in the Midlands Under-18s squad to prepare for this season’s Divisional Festival.
Wing Levi Hughes (Herefordshire), number eight Callum Nicholls (Shropshire) and the Worcestershire pair of prop Jamie White and lock Jack Bishop were included in a 40-man squad after impressing the Midlands selectors during North Midlands’ programme of three county matches before Christmas.
They will take part in the Midlands Development Day at Leicester Grammar School on January 28 which will be followed by a further session at the school on February 4.
The Divisional Festival will be held in Portsmouth from February 23 to 25.
