England U20s coach Mark Mapletoft has explained why he has permitted RugbyPass to film Embedded 2024, the behind-the-scenes documentary series on the exploits of his Six Nations title-winning squad at the World Rugby U20 Championship.
The English open their Pool C campaign this Saturday with a heavyweight clash versus Argentina in Athlone and the first episode of the new docu series was released on Wednesday, quickly garnering the seal of approval from Mapletoft and his players who watched in the team room at their hotel in Cape Town.
It’s the second foray by RugbyPass into filming a team at the U20 Championship in South Africa as a series was also produced on Italy last year. The footage that Mapletoft saw from that production convinced him that it would be worthwhile for England to similarly lift the veil on their age-grade squad.
