Richmond's Fiona Pocock has been called into the England Women's squad to compete in the FIRA AER European Championship in Amsterdam later this week.
Pocock, who can play on the wing or at fullback, has replaced Darlington Mowden Park Sharks' Georgina Roberts who has been forced to withdraw from the squad through injury.
Pocock, who is just 18, has made a number of impressive performances for England A this season and now she could be set to win her first cap for England.
The tournament kicks off on Saturday May 17th and will see England, seeded in Group A, take on Sweden on May 17th. If England are successful they will next play in the semi-finals on May 20th with the final taking place on May 24th.
England Head Coach Gary Street has named a strong squad of 26 players which includes 20 players that helped England win this season's RBS 6 Nations Grand Slam crown. The squad will once again be led by captain Catherine Spencer with Saracens' Rachel Burford as Vice Captain.
The European Championships will see 14 teams from across Europe compete for the coveted crown, including all the Home Nations teams as well as France, Spain, the Netherlands and Sweden.
