Our Own Chinnor Prop Ryan Hopkins To Play For England

Massive congratulations to Ryan Hopkins who is selected to play for England in the Rugby Aid charity match tomorrow evening at Twickenham Stoop.

Rugby World Cup winner Mike Tindall and McBusted star Harry Judd are among a host of former international players, celebrities and serving members of the armed forces set to battle it out in the inaugural Rugby Aid charity match.
The game, that will be broadcast live on BT Sport, will see England take on a Rest of the World XV with the star-studded cast set to pack down at Harlequins’ Twickenham Stoop stadium on Friday, 4 September and live on BT Sport.

The fixture will be in aid of Rugby For Heroes which raises funds and awareness through the sport of rugby, the fan community and the wider professional player network to support military personnel who are making the transition back from military service to civilian life.

The England team will be captained by Tindall and will include some of his former World Cup-winning team-mates alongside celebrities such as Judd, who also found fame on Strictly Come Dancing, JLS’ JB Gill and England international goalkeeper David James.

The Rest of the World team will contain former British & Irish Lions stars Ronan O’Gara, Geordan Murphy and Shane Williams.

Good Luck Ryan
