BIRCHWOOD’S Simon Ince will live the dream of representing his country after being called up to the England touch rugby squad.

Ince, who plays for the Lymm touch rugby side, has earned his first international call-up and will play for the England over 45 team at the European Championships in Jersey on July 7-10.

He said: “I have always played sport since I could catch a ball and, as any competitive sportsman will tell you, representing their country is an ambition that most people can only dream of.”
