North Shropshire College TNS Students Called Up for National Team

Oswestry, United Kingdom, March 30, 2018 --(PR.com)-- North Shropshire College (NSC) is delighted with the success of several of its TNS Professional Phase Scholarship Players who were recently called up to represent the Welsh under 18’s Academy team.

Lewis Dutton, James Parry, CJ Craven, Callum Jones, Rob Reynolds and Tom Williams were the Scholars who impressed coaches at the training camps to earn their place in the team. Their excellent technical ability, intelligence and leadership qualities led to them being recognised by the Welsh team and considered for two recent fixtures against the Republic of Ireland, played in the Waterford area of Ireland on the 18th and 23rd February 2018.

In addition to the Scholars’ successful call ups, the Welsh team then went on to recover from a 0-0 draw in their first match to reclaim the John Coughlan Memorial Cup for this year. The news comes after an already successful period for the TNS NSC team, with Scholar Harry Bower being recently selected for a place with the English Colleges Football Association under 18’s team.

Steve Benyon, Sport Lecturer at NSC comments, “This has been a wonderful experience for our Scholars, and has given them the opportunity to excel and develop their skills within an international level setting. I would like to congratulate them on their performance so far, and wish them further success as they develop as players in the future.”
