Caldy RFC’s Nyle Davidson has been confirmed as part of the 23-strong squad for England Counties’ summer tour in Canada.
Davidson, who lives in West Kirby, is taking part in the competition, which is the highest level of rugby that can be achieved outside of the professional game.
The team’s next match is against Prairie Wolf Pack, winners of the 2015 Canadian Rugby Championship, on Tuesday, 7 June.
Their final match will be against Ontario Blues in Toronto on Saturday, 11 June who they beat 32-26 when the teams last met in 2010.
“We are excited to be playing our first match of the tour and expect a tough game against BC Bears,” said team manager Matt Long.
“Our coaching team are confident in the players selected and we’ve had a good training week to prepare. England Counties have a strong record on overseas tours and we are looking to continue this on Friday.”
