Good luck to Tom Arnold, son of time-served Banbury Youth Coach Steve, who has been selected to represent Devon Under 20s against Cornwall in Launceston on Sunday 22nd January. Tom moved away from Banbury to study at Plymouth University and has been playing for the local Plymstock side when studies allow.

George Grieve was also in County action for North Midlands Under 20s against Warwickshire last Monday night at Broadstreet. Midlands came from behind to win 24-12 with George bagging a late try. George left Banbury when he signed for National 1 side Birmingham Moseley.

Both players will be hoping to catch the eye of the regional selectors in their forthcoming County Championship matches!

Tom and George are pictured above – after a Bulls cup game at Grove in 2014! – with Tom on the left. George is pictured below in action for North Midlands U20s.
