Natalie McClarnon

Natalie McClarnon of Harlow continues to make a major impact on junior ladies rugby. She is captain of the Essex under 17 team. She was also recently invited to an RFUW Talent Identification Day, where players from across the country were considered for the National (TDG) Talent Development Group Programme. As a result of this she has been invited to join a squad for the next rounds of Under 19 trials, to be held at Litchfield RFC on Sunday 22nd October and 12th November 2006. The RFUW are using the process to build a national top 30 junior squad who will be coached throughout the year as a step towards selection for the national side. Success here could see her selected for games with other under 19 national sides.
