Tate named in England squad
Fri, Mar 28th, 2025
A huge congratulations to Worth 1st XV rugby player Tate Williams who is set to make his England U18s debut after being picked to represent his country in this year’s U18 Six Nations Festival in France.
Tate, who also plays for Harlequins, has been named in the England squad for the Six Nations Festival in Vichy, which includes matches against Scotland (10 April), Spain (14 April) and hosts France (18 April).
This weekend he is in the squad for a friendly fixture against Ireland at the Mardyke Sports Grounds, University of Cork, which will be a warm-up for the Six Nations.
Tate has made a huge contribution to rugby at Worth and, as one of our 1st XV captains this academic year, he helped the side to 13 straight wins and then a draw before suffering their only defeat of the season in the quarter-final of the National Vase.
Ahead of the U18 Six Nations Festival, head coach Jonathan Pendlebury said: “With many of the players travelling away and earning caps for the first time, the U18 Festival is an exciting opportunity for our players to grow and take ownership of their development.”
This is an incredible achievement and Worth is extremely proud of Tate.
He is the second Worth player to be named in England’s U18 Six Nations Festival squad in as many years after team-mate Felix Bateman-Champain was included in last year’s competition.
