Sale Sharks are staging their first ever rugby camp for Manx children.

Tom Ball, who was discovered by Sale Sharks Academy at the 2005 Sale Sharks Residential Premiership Rugby Academy at Catterick has been invited by Sale Sharks to take a place in the England Under 16 Academy.

The 5 day 'Be your Best' Premiership Rugby Academy Camp at Strensall in Yorkshire, in the Easter Holidays run by Sale Sharks, Leeds Tykes, Newcastle Falcons and the British Army, in association with O2, was a huge success with camp attendees coming from as far away as America to learn the specialist skills on offer.
