| Newcastle Falcons trio Alex Gray, Rory Clegg and Tom Catterick have been named in the England Under-18s squad. |
Fly halves Clegg and Catterick, plus flanker Gray, will join the squad for three days of training this week at Bromsgrove School, as they prepare for the upcoming international against Wales on March 2.
Gray and Catterick both make the squad despite being a year young, having starred for England at Under-16s level last season.
Gray captained the 16s last season, and was even called up to tour Australia with the Under-18s in the summer, two years young.
After the Wales game they then travel to Cork for the Six Nations Under-18 Festival, with games against Italy, France and Scotland.
England face Italy on March 26 at Temple Hill (5pm), France on March 29 at Woodleigh Park (2.30pm) and Scotland on April 1 at Musgrave Park (2.30pm).
