WORCESTER Rugby Club are continuing to boost their senior squad with the arrival of two junior England internationals at Sixways.
Full-back Elijah Sobanjo (pictured standing) and centre Andrew Higgins have joined the Gold 'n' Blues on professional terms. Both players represented England at Under 18 level this season and were involved in the squad that narrowly lost to Australia Under 18s at Sixways last season.
Sobanjo, aged 18, is 5ft 8ins tall and weights 13 stone.
He is originally from Middlesex and has also represented England at Under 16 level.
Higgins, also aged 18, is originally from Horsham and is 5ft 11ins tall and weights 13 stone.
"Both Andrew and Elijah are tremendous young players who we feel sure will mature into accomplished senior backs," said Director of Rugby Les Cusworth.
"We are looking to talent and youth as the future of Worcester RFC and in Elijah and Andrew we have secured two of the country's most promising backs."
