Harlequins Academy were well represented in the England U16 squads this weekend.
Harlequins EPDG members Alex Stout and Kyle Sinckler both saw action in the 1st team and Ben Axten-Burrett played for the 'A' selection.
The England Under 16 squad won a practice match 42-10 against a Saracens Academy U17 side at the conclusion of this week's development camp at Hartpury College in Gloucestershire.
There were two practice matches at Hartpury, and in the first of them England U16 A defeated a combined Hartpury College-Gloucester Academy U17 side 10-5.
The games concluded a five-day camp for 60 players who assembled on Tuesday for training under England 16 Group head coach Phil Stanlake.
Next in line is a development session for two squads of 26 players each at Cokethorpe School in Oxfordshire (March 6-8), then they will split with England meeting at Cokethorpe and England A at Solihull School on the weekend of March 13-15.
England will contest the Four Nations Tournament against Wales, France and Italy in south Wales in April, while England A play three matches in the Millfield International Festival the same month.
