Rugby fans will be...
Exeter Chiefs winger Jack Nowell says he is "over the moon" after he was named in Stuart Lancaster's 33-man England squad for the upcoming QBE Autumn Internationals.
The talented Cornishman is Exeter's sole representative in the England party, who over the course of November will tackle world champions New Zealand (Nov 8), South Africa (Nov 15), Samoa (Nov 22) and Australia (Nov 29).
For Nowell, his inclusion offers him the chance to add to his current tally of five international caps, all of which were gained during this year's Six Nations campaign.
The Exeter Chiefs will be swapping their rugby boots for walking shoes next May, as they pledge to take part in popular fundraising event the Exeter Foundation Big Walk.
The 10-mile sponsored walk, which last year raised thousands for the Exeter Foundation, returns on May 2nd 2015.

The new look Sandy Park was reopened in style following its £10 million refurbishment with an impressive gala dinner for over 600 people.
Award-winning Sandy Park’s Grand Reopening showcased the newly extended building with its state-of-the-art conference facilities, which has nearly doubled in size since building work began in January.
England Rugby World Cup winner and British Lions star Will Greenwood (pictured) headed a star-studded line-up at the Grand Reopening, which also featured former cricketer Peter Bowler and comedian Bob Webb.
Henry Slade insists he and his Exeter Chiefs are prepared to go to "dark places" in a bid to see off their Aviva Premiership rivals.
With three victories from four starts already this season, Slade was again at the heart of Exeter's latest success story as he helped himself to a maiden Premiership try and two penalties in the Devon club's 36-13 win over Harlequins at Sandy Park.
Alongside fellow young gun Sam Hill in the Exeter midfield, the 21-year-old back has enjoyed a stellar start to the 2014/15 campaign, producing a string of impressive on-field displays that have had...
Rob Baxter’s calls for Exeter Chiefs to re-establish their Sandy Park fortress were well and truly answered as his side swot aside the attentions of visiting Harlequins.
Having only won two of their last nine league games on their own turf and just seven out of 17 matches in all competitions in the last 12 months, the Chiefs could not have picked a better time to rediscover the winning formula.
From start to finish, Baxter’s braves had too much for their rivals.
Thomas Waldrom, Jack Yeandle and Henry Slade all crossed for tries, whilst the boots of Slade and Gareth...
