PREMIERSHIP RUGBY today announced an extension of their partnership with the UK's largest insurance company, Aviva, for a further three years.The contract extension, which starts in the 2014-15 season, will cover a golden era for club rugby in England and will include a period when the country will host a Rugby World Cup and when rugby union will finally rejoin the Olympic movement.
Denzel Boatey-Agyei, Nathan Thomas and Silas-Paul Johnson have all been selected for the Harlequins Elite Player Development Groups following recent performances during the National U15 tournament.
Mike Brown will play fullback for England as they take on the Barbarians on Sunday at Twickenham Stadium. Lining up on the opposition will be prop James Johnston who has been named in the Barbarians starting XV.
Harlequins launched its new Membership Scheme three weeks ago and already over 1,700 memberships have been taken out for next season, including over 200 by new supporters.

Harlequins captain Chris Robshaw started his summer holiday in style with a round of golf with current world number two Rory McIlroy, former England cricket captain Andrew Strauss and Arsenal footballer Theo Walcott at Wentworth Golf Club today.
Harlequins will be represented at the Aviva Premiership Final by Bishop Perrin Church of England Primary School after helping local children improve their numeracy skills with the Tackling Numbers programme in partnership with MBNA.
Karl Dickson joined Harlequins in June 2009 from Bedford Blues and has appeared on more than 50 occasions for the London club. The Salisbury born scrum-half was twice called into the England Elite squad during the 2011-12 season as injury cover. During England’s 2012 summer tour, Dickson appeared in the second mid week tests against the South African Barbarians, replacing his younger brother, Lee.
