England Golf have named their U16 Squad to play Ireland next month and Surrey golfer Aaron Moody is selected

The six girls include Lauren Crump, Daisy Lee, Ellie Lichtenhein, Emily Peaford, Ria Prabhakar and Arianna Virik, while Albie Beeston, Alex Boyes, Thomas Hartshorne, Aaron Moody, Frankie Morton and George Whitehead are the six boys named in the squad.

England U16s won 15-9 at Carton House when they last visited Ireland in 2023, while they will be looking to emulate last year’s home performance. England produced a stunning final-day comeback at Burnham & Berrow to win 16-14, where Lichtenhein, Peaford, Boyes and Hartshorne were all part of the team.

England Golf U16 Team Captain/Manager Jamie O’Connor said: “The annual match against Ireland is a great opportunity for our brightest under-16 prospects to gain experience competing at international level. The contest provides a chance for selected players to compete against a strong Ireland team within a format that replicates the one used at the European Team Championships and Home Internationals.

“This year’s venue, Ballybunion, will no doubt prove to be a challenging match play venue, a spectacular host, to what is a strong England team of 12, including debutants Albie Beeston, Ria Prabhakar and Daisy Lee.”

Wishing Aaron and Emily and their team mates all the very best.
