Elvis will travel with England in a 26 man squad to South Africa as he looks set to earn an international cap ahead of the upcoming international series taking place.

He joins only one other Newcastle Falcon to be selected for the tour as the two of them look to represent the North East well against Ireland, France and South Africa in Cape Town and Paarl.

The entire club is thrilled at the achievement for Elvis as he has been massively influential for not just Novocastrians during his time at the club but the Newcastle Falcons academy as well.

SuperSport schools are set to provide coverage for all set fixtures in the series and will be broadcasting each fixture live as it happens so you and everybody else at the club can cheer Elvis on as he goes in search of a special first cap!

Go well Evis!
