England head coach Simon Middleton has dropped three gamers for Saturday’s Take a look at in opposition to the US at Exeter’s Sandy Park.
Worcester prop Laura Keates, Gloucester full-back Emma Sing and Loughborough Lightning prop Detysha Harper miss out from the 35-woman squad.
The Take a look at is a part of preparations for the World Cup which begins in New Zealand on 8 October.
Middleton stated these not chosen stay “in rivalry”.
“We have had month of preparation at Pennyhill Park, the place the gamers have labored extraordinarily exhausting,” stated Middleton.
“We have lowered the squad to 35 forward of this weekend’s match.
“We really feel it is best for them to return to their golf equipment for their very own pre-seasons, and we are going to after all be monitoring and in contact all through.”
England rose to the highest of the world rankings in April with a fourth successive Six Nations title.
The Crimson Roses have a second warm-up sport in opposition to Wales on 14 September in Bristol.
Middleton will then announce his remaining squad of 32 earlier than they head out to New Zealand on Tuesday, 20 September.
