Jack Welsby, Joshua Simm, Matthew Foster, Brad Pinder, Jordan Olmez and Kevin Brown will all be involved following a review of the international player pathway.Feeling there was a need to upgrade and improve the current international programme below the Elite Squad level, the new programme will have more of a focus on talent identification, player skill development, physical competences and the creation of a performance coaching environment.A National Performance Training Squad Programme will also be established for the under-16 and under-18 elite player groups replacing the current England Youth and Academy programmes.National Performance Training Squads (under-16, under-18 & Women) will operate through national training centres. Up to 40 players can be selected to each group throughout the annual programme from the Community game and Academy structures by national staff.Lee Briers will take over from Andy Kelly as head coach of England Academy and combine this role with his current position of assistant coach at Warrington.International competitions will still continue to be played at under-16, under-18 and Women’s level. This year, the under-16 international programme will remain during the Easter period but from 2018 will be moved and commence once the Super League Scholarship programme is complete (July). Under-18s will now start after the Super League Academy season is complete in October. England Women will compete this year in the Rugby League World Cup in Australia.The National Performance Programme will run on an annual basis from February – October.Neil Kilshaw, Player Performance Manager at Saints, said: “We’d like to congratulate the six players involved.
