ENGLAND'S new coach Steve Borthwick set up a three-day training camp at Teddington's riverside Lensbury Club as the squad prepared for their third match of the Guinness Six Nations against Wales later this month.

The 26-player-squad were joined by a group of players from the England U20s for their training sessions.

So far, England have lost to Scotland in their opening match and beat Italy at Twickenham last week. They are yet to face Wales, France and Ireland.

The Red and Whites will head to Cardiff for their showdown against Wales next week which will take place at the Principality Stadium on Saturday, February 25 at 4.45pm.

Youngsters visiting the Lensbury during their half term week were treated to a close up glimpse of the England stars, who were happy to sign autographs and pose for photos.

The exclusive club has become a popular choice for visiting international rugby teams as well as England due to the relaxed atmosphere, impressive facilities and its closeness to the High Street where players can enjoy a coffee or even a beer on days off.  

Courtney Lawes and Kyle Sinckler, who sustained a facial injury in Sunday's match against Italy, will also be in camp to undertake rehab work.
