Last weekend, Mr Dawling was part of the coaching team for the England U17s North squad at the England U17s camp. Read what Mr Dawling had to say about this fantastic opportunity:

“The camp served as a great development opportunity for the players entering the start of their international Rugby journey, with most of the players in this group progressing through to form the England U18s squad later this year.

Working alongside the England U18s lead coach Jonathan Pendlebury and the rest of the support staff was a great opportunity and a hugely valuable experience in my development as a coach. I am very thankful for the support that Sutton Valence School gives, allowing me to grow and expand my knowledge and experience. I am extremely appreciative of all the hard work the boys apply to their Rugby training at the School, in particular, the U16s and First XV squad”.
