Brize Norton teenager Carl Reynolds is keen for a taste of more representative honours after helping England Under 18 Schoolboys to at least a share of the Centenary Shield.

The 17-year-old midfielder played his part as a substitute in England's three games in the competition a 3-0 win over Northern Ireland, a 2-0 victory against Scotland and a goalless draw with the Republic of Ireland.

It means England are guaranteed at least a share of the trophy, and if Republic of Ireland fail to beat Northern Ireland at Ballybofey on Monday, they will be outright winners.

Reynolds, who is studying for a BTEC national diploma in sports science at Cirencester College, was thrilled by the whole experience.

"It was brilliant, absolutely brilliant," he said. "I really enjoyed it and it made me want to taste even more of it.

"I was pleased with all three of my performances. I have got my cap and I want to go on from there now."

He went close to scoring against both the Republic of Ireland and Scotland.

After coming on for the last 35 minutes in the final game against the Republic at Crawley Town, he almost broke the stalemate in the dying moments when his inswinging corner was tipped over the bar by the visitors' keeper.

"It was curling and going straight in and the keeper has had to turn it over it was a quality save," he said.

"We knew the Ireland game was going to be the hardest of the lot. It was probably the best game of all of them."

The previous week against Scotland at Plymouth in front of another 3,000-strong crowd, Reynolds went close with a free-kick after coming on as a substitute with 25 minutes left when England were already leading 2-0.

"It was about 25 yards out and it has gone round the wall, and the keeper has made a good save," he said. "I was really pleased with how I played."

He featured in two reserve games for Oxford United earlier this season, and his burning ambition remains to break into the professional game.

"I have got to finish at college and get my qualifications and see where it goes next year," he said.

"Hopefully I will be up at Oxford from the start of next season."
