England v France
U18 International Friendly
Victoria Park, Hartlepool FC
Thursday 21 September 2006

England U18s Head Coach Brian Eastick has named a 24-man squad for the clash with France on Thursday 21 September.

The match, which is England U18s' first outing of the season, will be held at Hartlepool's Victoria Park.

Eastick has included a number of players who featured for England U17s last season, including the highly-rated Daniel Sturridge, who plays for Manchester City.

Chelsea have five representatives - Ryan Bertrand, Jack Cork, Sam Hutchinson, Lee Sawyer and Scott Sinclair - the most from any club.

Birmingham's Sone Aluko - brother of England Women's International Eni, has also received the nod, as has Edward Upson, who won The FA Youth Cup with Ipswich in 2005.

Tickets for the game are £3 for adults if booked in advance (£5 on the day of the match) while children (under-16) and OAPs are just £1.

To book, call Hartlepool FC on 01429 272584 and press option two, or send a fax to 01429 863007.
