Basford Girls retain TDG places.

U18 Talent Development Group (TDG) 2007/08

The RFUW have announced its 2007/08 Talent Development Group, who were selected following nomination by their Regional Coaches to the High Performance Academy’s held this summer.
The Under 18 TDG of 35 includes players, 3 of which are Basildon/Rochford Players. 2 Basildon Players, Emily Scott and Sophie Russell, have been re-selected and they have been joined this Season by teammate Natalie McClarnon. The TDG will participate in sessions held both nationally and locally throughout the season.
The TDG focuses on individual player and athletic development through core rugby skills and by providing players with an understanding and knowledge of the requirements to play rugby at the highest level.
Whilst not all players involved with the TDG will progress to present England in future years, the RFUW performance staff anticipate that the TDG will prove to be a high quality, player centred environment from which future world class international players progress and develop.
