Virtually all of the starting XV seem to be players who have represented England before so she is starting on the bench - and technically will not get her cap (do they actually give out caps, I wonder?) until she gets onto the field - but it is an achievement to get straight into the 22 for the first game of the season, especially from a squad of 36. Sasha will also have some familiar company from her touchline position - including Nat McClarnon and Lizell Heather.
*Sasha versus [well, literally "against"] the Red Dragon!
Thanks John!
ReplyDeleteIf you're mentioning other East Region U17/18 veterans, don't forget Libby Peake (ex West Norfolk) and Sophie Russell (ex Basford).
