England Golf has named its 12-player squad for the upcoming Under 16 International Match versus Ireland at Burnham & Berrow Golf Club (October 5-6).
Assistant Performance Manager Jamie O'Connor said: "This match represents an amazing opportunity for our younger players to both gain experience in an international environment, and also stake a claim for the season to come. The match is being hosted by the fantastic Burnham and Berrow Golf Club, and will prove to be fiercely competitive - with all players having successful seasons this year.
"Comprising of six girls and six boys, the match represents a rather unique opportunity, acting as great experience for events such as the Home Internationals, whilst providing an environment where both girls and boys can learn and motivate each other."
