England Wheelchair have confirmed the 10-player squad that will represent the national shirt at the upcoming Rugby League World Cup in Australia.
Head coach Tom Coyd MBE has selected a group featuring players from four clubs across the domestic game, with London Roosters and Halifax Panthers providing the largest contingent with three representatives a piece. While Leeds Rhinos and Sheffield Eagles each supply two members of the squad.
The squad includes several players who were part of England's successful World Cup-winning campaign on home soil in 2022 and have continued to establish themselves among the elite performers in Wheelchair Rugby League.
London Roosters’ Mason Billington, Joe Coyd and Lewis King will all make the journey alongside Halifax Panthers stars Jack Brown, Rob Hawkins and Finlay O'Neill. Leeds Rhinos pair Nathan Collins and Tristan Norfolk have also been included, while Sheffield Eagles are represented by Luis Domingos and Chris Haynes.
England Wheelchair Head Coach, Tom Coyd MBE, says:
"Selecting a World Cup squad is never easy, but this group has earned the opportunity through their performances, commitment and professionalism throughout the programme. We have a blend of experienced international players and those who have emerged through the pathway, and together, I believe we can be a team that’s hard to play against, with the versatility to win in different ways.
"Every player understands what it means to wear the England shirt and the responsibility that comes with it. Yesterday’s brilliant Super League Grand Final was a testament to the special community that we are privileged to represent on the world stage.
"We've had an outstanding preparation period which will continue with our final camp on the weekend of October 3/4 at St George’s Park before we fly out to Australia on October 22nd.
"The squad has developed a real connection on and off the field. They've challenged each other to get better all the time, and we've seen significant growth across the group. We are excited for the tough challenges ahead, and the players have earned the right to be confident in the work they've put in.”
