England’s top cadets and juniors will converge on Guernsey this weekend (March 14-16, 2014) hoping to extend their domination over their fellow home nations at this season’s 6 Nations Championships.
England’s youngsters have traditionally done well against their nearest rivals, which included securing five of the eight titles from last year’s tournament that was held at the Sir Tom Finney Sports Centre, Preston. The English teams dominated the team events with three of the four titles, while both George Downing and Emily Bolton also picked up individual prizes.
The English have sent a strong eight-man squad to Guernsey to battle against Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Isle of Man and the hosts in an attempt to secure a spectacular clean-sweep of awards.
