Preston's hot prospect goalkeeper Danielle Gibbons has received another boost after being called up to the England under 19s Training Camp next month.

Gibbons, who has just recently returned from the Youth World Cup in Sweden, will be hoping to impress following an impressive tournament, in which England eventually finished third.

The-17-year old shot stopper said: "I am ecstatic, really pleased, I didn't think I would get a chance when I didn't hear from them after they came and watched me play.

"Playing in the Youth World Cup gave me the experience of playing in front a crowd, under a lot of pressure, so hopefully I can build on that and it will help me break into the England squad".

The five day training camp will be held in Manchester from 15 - 19 August, providing Head Coach Mo Marley the opportunity to assess the new crop of England starlets.

The girls will also get the opportunity to prove what they can do on the pitch, with two friendly matches organised. England under 19s lost in the European Championships finals played in Macedonia last month, falling 2-1 to France.

Gibbons wasn't North End's only representative out in Sweden, as midfielder Chantelle O'Hara made the trip to Scandinavia.

O'Hara, who is known for her passing ability said: "Sweden was amazing, best experience of my life. I think it has improved my skill and general fitness, as it was such a high intensity. It was good to play with players who are at such a high standard."

After cruising through their group and the knockout rounds England fell just short in the semi finals losing 2-0 to a Norwegian side.

Reflecting on her time in Sweden, goalkeeper Gibbons said: "Hands down the best week of my life, not only like to play and get third place and a bronze medal, but the whole atmosphere around Gothenburg and having such a great team spirit within the camp."
