Harry Kidd, captain of the<br />

UGRL side, said: “I’m over the<br />

moon to make the squad.<br />

Playing for my country will<br />

be a huge honour. I can’t wait<br />

to fly out to Australia and<br />

having three lads from UGRL<br />

with me will be great. The<br />

facilities at the University of<br />

Gloucestershire are superb.<br />

We’re lucky enough to have<br />

top coaches and support<br />

staff. <strong>All</strong> of the strength and<br />

conditioning staff, the physios<br />

and team managers work<br />

hard to create the perfect<br />

place to play rugby league.<br />

We have a state of the art gym<br />

which we have the privilege<br />

of using. It is the perfect place<br />

for a rugby league player to<br />

be based.”<br />

who also works as the head<br />

coach of the university side.<br />

“it’s not just nice for the lads to<br />

get that recognition, but also<br />

the university and the set up<br />

we have down here.”<br />

The England team will<br />

now ramp up their final<br />

fundraising effort, with player<br />

sponsorship, kit sponsorship,<br />

raffle tickets and an online<br />

fundraising account at<br />

gofundme.com/englandunirl<br />

all established to reduce<br />

the financial contribution<br />

that each player needs to<br />

contribute.<br />
