The England Juniors who have been selected to compete in the WJHI in 2010 can be found through this link.

The Juniors and Veterans Selection policies for Interland 2011 are now available on the Interland area.

Please use the highlighted links to access the pages.

The selection policy for the Ward  JHI 2010 can be found here.

An incorrect date was amended on 18th January 2010. The document is now correct.

Selection for the proposed International with Belgium, Germany, Holland etc (Interland 2010) to be held  in NE Belgium  on  7th March  2010 will be based on the following events;

Regional Events;

- South Central (SOC) Sunday 1st November  2009

-East Midlands (DVO) Sunday 15th November 2009

National Event;

- West Midlands (WCH) Sunday 13th December 2009

and all known form up until  the end of 2009.

It is anticipated that juniors wishing to be considered for selection will compete in 2 of the 3 races listed.

In keeping with the objectives of the England Selectors to use this competition to provide experience, it is unlikely that the Junior Selectors will consider members of the Great Britain Junior Performance Squad for selection, but will consider members of the Great Britain Start Squad.

It is likely that the composition of the Junior team will be 3 M/W14, 3 M/W16 and 1 M/W18.

It is unlikely that the selectors will consider juniors in ‘bottom year’ M/W14 ie born in 1997.

At all events Juniors should run the course corresponding to their age class in 2010.

For Regional events juniors will be expected to run the following ‘colour coded’ courses;

M14/W14 – Light Green

W16 – Green

M16 – Blue

W18 – Short Blue

M18 – Short Brown

At the National Event Juniors should run their 2010 age class.
