Three players from Exeter Chiefs have been named in the 26-man squad for the England sevens team.

Regulars Chris Cracknell and Kevin Barrett are back while winger Matt Jess has had his first ever call-up to the national sevens side.

There is also a call up for Jess' former Cornish All Blacks' team mate Tony Rocques.

They will hope to force their way into the 12-man side for the first event of the season in Dubai next month.
