Frances Houslop is in the England squad for the forthcoming Tests against Germany later this month after passing a fitness test.

The 19-year-old from Horsted Keynes was part of the England squad which won a gold medal at the World Cup qualifiers in France earlier this year but she was sidelined for much of the tournament due to an ankle injury.

She said: "I cannot wait to get playing again. It was so frustrating having to watch from the sidelines. Even though I learned a lot, there is no substitute for playing."

England play Germany from October 22 to 23.

Ben Hawes was in the England team which began its bid for the Junior World Cup with a 5-2 victory against Chile in Tasmania. The 19-year-old from Lewes was vice-captain of the successful side.
