Congratulations to the three Redruth players who have earned selection for their respective England teams.
Billy Keast will be on the bench this Friday as England U20 take on Scotland U20 in Glasgow. Not originally selected in the Elite Playing Squad Billy has forced himself into the matchday selection through consistent strong performance for Redruth. A well deserved honour for the son of former Redruth favourite Richard Keast.
Tom Cowan-Dickie has been selected for the England Counties squad who will take on a Scotland Club XV on Friday, 26th February followed by France Federale on Friday, 11th March at Blackheath RFC. Tom has been in outstanding form for Reduth this year performing equally well at prop, hooker and flanker. Tom will be very difficult to leave out of the starting 15 for these matches.
Jack Maunder has been named in the England U20 Elite Playing Squad. Only 18 years of age Jack has impressed all at Redruth with his quick thinking and quick hands at scrum-half. A place in the matchday squad must be on the cards.
The selection of these three young men shows that Redruth RFC is the best choice for young players who have ambitions to improve their rugby and play at the highest levels of the game.
