Lead Coach Julie Chipchase has had to make five changes to her initial squad, with Lauren Farmery, Mellissa Fletcher, Kasia Lipka, Stephanie Marsh and Ruby Staplehurst all now unavailable.

In their places to pull on the Three Lions training shirt come Chloe Roberts (Plymouth Argyle), Sarah Penny (Stockport County), Melissa Hughes (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Rebecca Thomas (Wolverhampton Wanderers) and Hollie Loud (Bristol Academy). 

The carrot for some of these players could be a place in the England U17 squad to play in the UEFA qualifiers for the inaugural 2008 FIFA Women's World Championship, provisionally scheduled for this October.
