CHISELDON'S Jonny May has been included in the England squad for the upcoming RBS 6 Nations Championship.

Former Ridgeway School pupil May, who plays for Aviva Premiership side Gloucester, has been named in Eddie May's 34-man squad for the tournament, which gets under way next month.

May sat out last year's tournament after rupturing a knee ligament in a Premiership match against Harlequins at Twickenham, shortly after featuring for England in their ill-fated 2015 Rugby World Cup campaign.

He marked his first start in an England jersey in more than a year with the opening try in a 37-21 victory over South Africa at Twickenham in November, before following that up by crossing the whitewash in the win over Argentina the following weekend.
