England junior teams enjoyed busy summer schedules in recent years

Our young national teams have played in a range of competitions and events as part of their development on the England Talent Pathway (ETP).

That includes the Home Nations Invitational Tournament (previously known as the Home Nations) and visits to European destinations.

We look back at which players and coaches were involved, who excelled and how our teams fared.

There was no ETP activity during 2020 or 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic and UK Government restrictions on sport and physical activity.
