FORMER Worcester RFC fly-half Millie Hyett has been added to the England Six Nations training squad ahead of the Guinness Women's Six Nations.
Hyett, now playing for Gloucester-Hartpury in the Allianz Premiership Women's Rugby, has played through the age groups with England and has now been rewarded with a call-up for the first time to the senior set-up.
Hyett only left Worcester at the end of last season having come through the ranks at the club before being signed by Gloucester-Hartpury, where she is currently studying at university.
The 19-year-old will join the rest of the squad at St George's Park for a pre-Six Nations training camp ahead of the tournament that starts at the end of March.
The Red Roses kick off their campaign with an away fixture against Italy on 24 March, before hosting Wales on the following weekend.
Following a fallow week in the competition, they then match the trip north to face Scotland away on 13 April. A week later, they will host Ireland before crossing the English Channel to play France in their final-round fixture.
