A call up for the English Lions U18's squad has meant a once in a lifetime opportunity for Josh Greenwood-MacDonald and Chester Butler called up to represent English Lions Youth out in South Africa.

Butler who played a starring role in the First Team and Josh GM who also featured for the Firsts and picked up an award for the Grand Final winning Siddal U23's have both been rewarded with representative honours after fine seasons.

The tour opened with a physical and hard fought 32-4 win for the English Lions Youth against their South African counterparts.

Please have a look at the recently upload photograph album of the boys out in South Africa for a flavour of what they've been up to. More photo's will be added as the tour progresses.
