19 year old Brooksby Alumnus, George Martin, has been named in England's matchday squad for their Six Nations fixture against Wales this weekend.

Uncapped forward, George, only made his Premiership debut for Leicester Tigers in the restart phase of last season. He made seven first-team appearances for Tigers before being added to the England squad as injury cover last week.

George excelled during his time at Brooksby Melton College, where he studied Level 3 Sport as a part of the college's programme in partnership with Leicester Tigers.

You can catch the game on Saturday 27th February on BBC One or BBC Radio 5 Live. Kick-off is at 4:45pm.

Good luck to George & the England team! Read the full article over on the Leicester Tigers website here
