Back row Maddie Feaunati and prop Liz Crake have been named for the first time among 32 players who have been awarded full-time England contracts for 2024/25.
“This Red Roses group is extremely competitive and the standards continue to go from strength to strength, as evidenced in this year’s Six Nations," said Charlie Hayter, England's head of women’s performance.
“Everyone involved in the programme is dedicated and committed to the journey that lies ahead, striving towards a common purpose of growing the game in this country and to contest the right to be successful at next year’s home Rugby World Cup," added Hayter. These contracts support aspiring players in their early professional journey and safeguard some of their time for dedicated rugby development.
