Every rugby supporter looks forward to the month of February, as it marks the return of the Six Nations Championship. The same anticipation applies at Under-20 level, and with only a few weeks to go before the opening round of the U20 Six Nations, England U20 have officially launched their 2025 campaign by naming an initial 32-man training squad. Gathered for a four-day camp in Portugal, this selection signals the beginning of a new cycle, with the majority of players unfamiliar with the environment following the mass departure of the 2005-born cohort, who are no longer eligible at this age grade.
