Parkinson gets England-U20s call before World Cup
Midfielder Erica Meg Parkinson, 18, has been named in England's preparation squad for the Under-20 Women's World Cup in Poland next month.
England's Under-20 Women's football team has named 18-year-old Erica Meg Parkinson in the training camp squad for the upcoming World Cup. However, she has decided to withdraw from the camp and remain with her club, North Carolina Courage. Club-mate Lauryn Thompson has also withdrawn, leaving Manchester United's Jessica Anderson and West Ham's Sienna Wareing as replacements for the camp.
The squad, under the guidance of Lydia Bedford, will take part in a friendly against Portugal in Lisbon on Thursday before facing Canada in their World Cup opener on September 5th.
