Rugby Players Selected for Independent Schools National Team

After the successful 2011 rugby season, five Shiplake boys were nominated for The Independent Schools National Team. Over 400 boys from across the country were nominated and had to make it through three different trials culminating in the ‘Divisional Festival’.

We are delighted that Teddy Hewins and Ian Brown have both been successful in making the 42 man national squad. They are now looking forward to five matches in the UK and a tour to Italy in the Easter holidays where they will face two tough tests against Italy U18 national team.
