Following their Loughborough training camp, Head Coach Steve Bucknall has cut the initial England U18 Squad list down from 32 to 24. Bucknall has also named the 12 man roster to take part in the Haris Memorial Tournament in Manchester over Christmas, perhaps an indication of those likely to make the final roster for the European Championships next summer.

The 24 man squad is as follows;

Jamie Battish (Australia)
Jesse Chuku (USA)
Omari Coates (Lewisham Thunder)
Jack Crook (Manchester Magic)
Jordan Culley (Reading Rockets)

Rowell Graham (Lewisham Thunder)
Joshua Guddemi (Derby Trailblazers)
Joe Hart (Blair Academy, USA)
Dylan Johns (Majadahonda, Spain)
Josh McGinn (Manchester Magic)
Dominic Norton (Barking Abbey)
Mark Schroeder (Taunton Tigers)
Elliot Sentance (Leicester Warriors)
Jamal Smikle (London Spartans)
John Stewart (Sheffield Junior Sharks)
Christopher Tawiah (MK Lions)

Harrison Turner (Taunton Tigers)
Devon Van Oostrum (Caja Laboral, Spain)
Josh Ward-Hibbert (Derby Trailblazers)
Zak Wells (Barking Abbey)
Skyler White (USA)

Jamie Battish
Simeon Espirit
Joe Hart
Dylan Johns
Dominic Norton
Elliot Sentance
Jamal Smikle
John Stewart
Josh Ward-Hibbert
