Wales win fourth u16 four nations title

Wales remain unbeaten in the U16s Four Nations Championship, picking up their fourth successive title when they defeated England 30-10 in a winner-takes-all clash at the Gnoll in Neath.

Loose forward Rhys Wood led them to glory with two tries in a dominant second half, after the hosts led 10-4 at the break.

Wales U16s head coach, Tom Marsh, commented:

“It’s a brilliant result, England were really tough with their greater experience but our lads stuck to their task and dealt with it amazingly.

We give lads great opportunities and letting them see professional environments and they have really bought into it, they’ve been training since January and amazing all year.

“There’s a pathway there and the talent we’ve got in South Wales is fantastic.”

Wales took the lead in the seventh minute, prop Danny Jones creating a try for Max Phillips who dived over in the corner.

England levelled through winger Jaden Udegbe with the first of his two tries, spurning another opportunity soon after when spilling the ball diving for the line.

The hosts were back in front when stand off Jack Parrott cleverly offloaded to Leighton Clarke, Parrott converting with the first of his three goals.

Wales started the second period impressively, Alfie Davies and Mason Lewis crossing in quick succession, Wood then claiming his brace.

The only black mark for the Welsh were two dismissals, Danny Jones with his second red card of the tournament for a head butt and, after the final whistle, Cyrus Owen-Green shown one for striking.

England and Wales will meet in Neath in a fortnight to decide the U16s Four Nations title after both convincingly won their round two games.

England dominated from the off, building a 40-0 half time lead against Ireland in Widnes, fullback Jack Bowden finishing with 18 points from two tries and five goals.

Centre Jonah Carter claimed a hat trick, and Billy Buster-Knight and Jaiden Udbegbe were also on the scoresheet again, fellow try scorer Ryan Cunliffe also impressing in the pack.

Ireland showed commendable courage to open the scoring in the second half, centre Joe Clarke converting his own score.

Wales also started impressively, establishing a 22-point early lead facing Scotland in Merthyr Tydfil and they also led 40-0 at the break. Winger Alfie Davies opened the scoring and finished with three of Wales’s 13 tries, Jack Parrott claiming 16 points, including six goals.

Centre Max Phillips grabbed a brace in the first half and lively scrum half Will Mordecai did likewise in the second.

The game spilled over just before the hour, Danny Jones – who had scored minutes before – being dismissed for striking and Scotland’s Lachlan McKelvey sinbinned for his part in the fray.

Scotland received a penalty after the incident and Reece McAdam kicked it from long range to ensure they had points on the board.

England took the U18 Four Nations title after beating runners-up Wales 34-0.

The English dominated the match and were 24-0 up at the break as Wales couldn’t do a Four Nations double at Widnes.

Jake Lerigo had the first chance for England, but he was stopped in his tracks just a metre from the line, causing him to drop the ball.

Zak Bennett did eventually go over the line in the 12th minute to give the hosts the lead. Max Fleary converted well.

Dan Wilds nearly scored a try back for Wales but was stopped short of the line on the final tackle of a set.

Following that, a length of the field set culminated in Trent Ruddy scoring England’s second try with Fleary again adding the goal.

England continued to dominate as quick fire tries from Fleary, then Rio Walker, plus two goals from Fleary put the half-time score onto 24-0.

It took 14 minutes for England to add to their score. Ethan Gaffney ran over for their fifth try and Will Randall converted.

And with five minutes to go, Connor Hall charged through to put the icing on the cake for England.

“We saved our best performance to the end for this winner takes all game” commented Gary Hewer, England Coach. “The best thing about the performance was our defensive effort and keeping Wales to a zero!”

Wales u16’s make history

Wales make history becoming first u16 four nations champs

Wales became the first-ever Four Nations champions at under 16s level after beating England Lions 38-18 in Leigh writes Andy Morgan.

The victory left Wales unbeaten at the top of the standings after big wins over Ireland and Scotland earlier this year.

Wales ran in seven tries in a comprehensive win, with Henry Parker’s try and five goals contributing 14 of Wales’ points.

It all started as early as the fifth minute when Nathan Davies went over for Wales’ first try and Parker converted.

England soon levelled after a good set that saw Nathaniel Parker score, with Jack Bibey converting.

But after that, Wales took control and were 28-6 up at half-time thanks to tries from Joseph Johnson, Jake Nottingham, Henry Parker and Kaden Johnson, all scored in 20 minutes before the break. Parker converted three of them.

England couldn’t recover

England couldn’t recover from that and were further frustrated after their coach was sent to the stands and Bibey was given a yellow card.

Jacob Jones managed a further try during the ten minute spell when they had a one-player advantage to put the game beyond England’s reach.

But that didn’t stop the home side for attempting a come-back. Tries from Jayden Aaron and Lucas Mulqueeny, both improved by Bibey brought the score back to 32-18

However Wales sealed their victory seven minutes before the end whe Jacob Morris dived in under the sticks and Parker converted.

Under 16s head coach, Paul Berry, said: “The lads deserved the win today and I think we’ve been the most consistent team all year in the competition.

The performances we’ve had have been building for a pperiod of time, leading to a winner takes all game today.

“The collective effort over the last few months has really paid dividends.”

Their win puts them top of the table

Their win puts them top of the table with two wins out of three and a points difference of plus 44.

Ireland and Scotland meet at the end of October and both are on negative points differences, Ireland on minus 14 and Scotland on minus 28, so a big win is needed by one of the Celtic nations to take the title.

Wales, who are now guaranteed second or third place in the table, went 12-0 down early on in the game through Dylan Grears and Tom Farren with Harley Nelson converting both, but a Harrison Doe try in the corner just before the break gave them hope.

England quickly extended their lead as five minutes into the second half, they were 22-4 up. First Joshua Blinkhorn scored near the corner, then Devan Sharp’s try under the sticks made it easy for George Jamieson to convert.

The Wales boys refused to give up and Alex Banks’ try and Alex Banks’ try, converted by Llewellyn Hawkes, brought them back into the game.

But England sealed the game as Blinkhorn scored a brace to complete his hat-trick with Jamieson converting once. Jayden Grey got a late consolation try for Wales that Hawkes improved.

England Lions u19s announce 32-player train-on squad

England Community Lions Under 19’s Head Coach Allan Coleman has announced a 32-player train-on squad for the European Championships.

This follows the February trial, held at Pilkington Recs, that saw players split across three teams who then played against each other.

Speaking on how selection worked, Coleman explained: “On the day I split the staff up over the three teams, I then took their feedback and nominated players, and that’s how we whittled it down.”

England Community Lions U19s TRIALS DAY in St Helens, trialists with Team Black

This squad is made up of players from 24 Community Rugby League clubs including representation from Cumbria, Lancashire, and Yorkshire and from famous old names like Millom, Siddal, and Leigh Miners Rangers.

“I was really excited by the amount of quality that was there at Pilks. We could have picked many more if I’m honest.

Unfortunately, though we can’t and it’s going to be even more of a difficult job now, cutting it back to 21,” Coleman said.

“I just feel that the squad we’ve got now gives us a real balance of quality.

There are three or four there for every position

There are three or four there for every position.

England Community Lions U19s TRIALS DAY in St Helens, trialists with Team Blue

That’s going to bring some challenges but also what I feel will be the best quality for England.”

While the squad includes several names that have impressed for England previously at earlier age groups.

There are also several players that have the chance to put their best foot forward including two players from Cottingham Tigers and one each from the likes of Lowca and Westgate Common.

“There are some kids out there that progressively come through the age groups of international representation.

But you also get some who don’t potentially get seen, and I think how we do the Lions programme now.

Especially through Alan Davidson, is we reach out to as many clubs as possibly can and it doesn’t matter what division they are in, it’s important they get as much opportunity as anyone else.

England Community Lions U19s TRIALS DAY in St Helens, trialists with Team Red

“That’s where you’ll see these hidden gems and it gives everyone a fair playing field.”

Coleman continued” “It’s really important that these clubs get exposure as well, then hopefully it grows their club. That’s also really important for us all on the Lions programme.”

The 32-player squad will meet up on the 6th March at Leigh Miners Rangers’ Twist Lane home for further training with a view to 21-player squad eventually being selected for the European Championships.

Match report

England Lions U16s won a hard-fought encounter with Wales 34-18 in Colwyn Bay on Sunday with the result in doubt right up until the last five minutes.

Wales, with a number of their players signing up for the official Wales Rugby League academy in Coleg y Cymoedd for September, gave a good account of themselves for much of the game, but in the end England’s experience took them over the line.

England took under a minute to take the lead after Wales made an error in the first set. Michael Sowden picked up the loose ball and Jayden Billy touched down from the resulting set. Oliver Whitford converted.

Wales hit back after seven minutes. Josh Hanson was the eventual scorer after two players were centimetres short in their attempts to get over the line. Isaac Morgan sliced the kick wide.

England regained the lead on 23 minutes when after a well-worked set, Billy notched his second, scoring near to the corner. Whitford missed the conversion attempt so England held just a converted-try lead.

But five minutes later, the visitor increased their advantage after Ellis Welburn completed a good passing move to ground. Whitford’s conversion attempt hit the post.

Wales were close to pulling a try back before the break but Morgan Farmer-Gratton and Isaac Morgan were both held up over the line, leaving the half-time score at 14-4 to England.

Wales were first over the line in the second half, attacking from the off, and were rewarded when Ben Morris twisted his way over the line. Isaac Morgan’s conversion attempt slipped under the bar.

England regained their ten point lead when Scott Egan scored in the corner five minutes later in another try that went unconverted.

Wales hit back again through the try of the game when Isaac Morgan broke free on the wing and sprinted 40 metres to ground under the sticks. He converted his own try to leave Wales just four points behind.

But England were next to score when Jack Edge dived over in the corner. Sonny Cooper converted well from the touchline to give England their ten-point lead back.

A well worked try for Wales was next, with Farmer-Gratton the scorer and Morgan unable to convert.

But England sealed the game three minutes from the end when Ryan Joseph picked up an Edge pass to score in the corner. Cooper converted well.

Egan put the icing on the cake with a try in the final move of the game.

Wales hosted England under 16 and under 17 internationals, played as a double header at Stadiwm ZipWorld in Colwyn Bay.

The future stars of the game in England and Wales put on a show over two youth internationals.

While England were to walk away with two wins, they were not easy wins as the young Welsh players went on toe to toe in front of more than 700 people.

A try from Ryan Wood with four minutes left on the clock broke Welsh hearts in their first ever match at under 17 level.

England won the encounter 16-10, but there was very little between the sides in an exciting contest played in good spirits throughout.

It was a battle royale throughout the game with two very well drilled defences. Wales have an official link with Salford Red Devils and this excellent performance from many individuals will certainly give their scouts a lot to look at.

After some good defending by Wales in the first ten minutes, they took the lead through a good run and break through by Harri Ackerman. Billy Walkley couldn’t convert.

England levelled on 26 minutes after Jay Richards twisted and turned to get past the Wales line and ground. Connor Gannon’s goal attempt was swept past the posts by the famous Bae Colwyn wind.

Wales looked to regain their lead, but tough English defence continued to keep them out and the scores were still level at 4-4 at the break.

England struck first in the second half after Evan Stephenson sold a dummy and scored. Gannon converted.

Wales replied on 54 minutes after Scott Pritchard leaped onto a grubber kick to score under the posts. Walkely converted to level the scores up at 10-10.

But it was England who won though after skipper Ryan Wood showed his skill be running through the Welsh defence to score under the posts. Gannon easily converted.

Both sides could have scored again in the last few minutes but, as they had been pretty much throughout the encounter, defences ruled.

Meanwhile, England Lions U16s won a hard-fought encounter with Wales 34-18 in Colwyn Bay on Sunday with the result in doubt right up until the last five minutes.

Wales, with a number of their players signing up for the official Wales Rugby League academy in Coleg y Cymoedd for September, gave a good account of themselves for much of the game, but in the end England’s experience took them over the line.

England took under a minute to take the lead after Wales made an error in the first set. Michael Sowden picked up the loose ball and Jayden Billy touched down from the resulting set. Oliver Whitford converted.

Wales hit back after seven minutes. Josh Hanson was the eventual scorer after two players were centimetres short in their attempts to get over the line. Isaac Morgan sliced the kick wide.

England regained the lead on 23 minutes when after a well-worked set, Billy notched his second, scoring near to the corner. Whitford missed the conversion attempt so England held just a converted-try lead.

But five minutes later, the visitor increased their advantage after Ellis Welburn completed a good passing move to ground.

Whitford’s conversion attempt hit the post.

Wales were close to pulling a try back before the break but Morgan Farmer-Gratton and Isaac Morgan were both held up over the line, leaving the half-time score at 14-4 to England.

Wales were first over the line in the second half, attacking from the off, and were rewarded when Ben Morris twisted his way over the line. Isaac Morgan’s conversion attempt slipped under the bar.

England regained their ten point lead when Scott Egan scored in the corner five minutes later in another try that went unconverted.

Wales hit back again through the try of the game when Isaac Morgan broke free on the wing and sprinted 40 metres to ground under the sticks. He converted his own try to leave Wales just four points behind.

But England were next to score when Jack Edge dived over in the corner. Sonny Cooper converted well from the touchline to give England their ten-point lead back.

A well worked try for Wales was next, with Farmer-Gratton the scorer and Morgan unable to convert.

But England sealed the game three minutes from the end when Ryan Joseph picked up an Edge pass to score in the corner. Cooper converted well.

Egan put the icing on the cake with a try in the final move of the game.
