England’s Red Roses have been training at The Lensbury Club in Teddington.

John Mitchell’s side are preparing to host two games on home soil this September.

They play France in Gloucester on the 7^th, and face Rugby World Cup Champions New Zealand a week later at Twickenham.

The fixtures mark the squad’s year-long build up ahead of the 2025 Women’s Rugby World Cup taking place in England next summer.

Their match against the Black Ferns on the 14^th of September will be the first game to take place at the newly named Allianz Stadium.

The German financial giant bought the naming rights for Twickenham from the RFU for an undisclosed fee earlier this month.

Despite some backlash against the decision, the RFU insists the move will be ‘transformative’ for the game.
