WARRIORS youngster Andrew Boyce played the full 80 minutes as England under 18s beat Scotland 25-12 in France to reach the FIRA/AER European Championship final for the third successive season.
The King’s School Worcester flanker is now hoping to keep his place in head coach John Fletcher's side to tackle hosts France in the final in Grenoble on Saturday.
England saw off Scotland in the semi-final with tries from flanker Andrew Hughes, full-back Howard Packman and number eight James Chisholm, while fly-half Josh Sharp kicked 10 points.
Fletcher said: "I thought that overall we were quite poor to be honest, we didn't play to the standard that we expect and we'll have improve on that ahead of the final on Saturday. Massive credit to Scotland - they were physical, passionate and they played with real intent."
