England Under-20s have named three Leicester Tigers players in their squad to take on Wales Under-20s at Parc Eirias in Colwyn Bay on Saturday (kick-off 7.30pm, live on S4C).Flanker Charlie Beckett, who came off the bench for Tigers in last weekend's LV= Cup game against Northampton Saints for his fourth senior appearance, is named in the pack. He is joined in the back row by fellow Academy forward Will Owen.
Hooker Jake Farnworth, who made his senior debut alongside Beckett in the LV= Cup win at London Irish earlier this season, is named among the replacements.
Head coach Jon Callard said: “We have trained well this week and have a healthy blend of experienced and new players in this squad.
"Wales are a passionate bunch and we got a good result against them last season, so they’ll be keen to come out of the blocks firing. They’ll be hurting from that result and wanting to prove a point, but we’ll be focusing on ourselves and looking to perform as well as we can."
