ENGLAND Community Lions have named extended train-on squads at Under-16s and Under-18s age groups as they prepare for a busy few months of internationals for both age groups.

The Under-16s have named 39 players, a number that will later be trimmed following a trial on 13th May and will take on Wales in Wales on 3rd June before home internationals against Scotland (18th June), Ireland (2nd September) and Wales (16th September).

The players not selected from that trial game will still have a representative opportunity when a Lions Regional Selection take on a French Regional side in England during July.

23 clubs across the country are represented through the Under-16s programme this term.
