Four schools’ individual champions have been named in the England squad for the Butterfly Schools’ Invitation International championships.
Sam Wilson, Ben Hee, Patricia Ianau and Sandy Choong are part of a 26-strong line-up selected by English Schools’ Table Tennis for the event at Worcester Arena.
They will face teams from Guernsey, Ireland, Isle of Man, Jersey, Scotland and Wales across three age groups.
The four champions all won their age groups at the Butterfly Schools’ Individual Championships in Wolverhampton in April.
The host association rotates through the nations involved, meaning England are staging the event for the first time since 2011. It takes place from June 22-24.
