The Rugby Players Association (RPA) have today announced the nominees for the "15 Under 23" MVP of the Month for April.

At the start of the season, the RPA launched a brand-new campaign called “15 Under 23”, to highlight the young members who stand out each month this 2021/22 Gallagher Premiership season.

The campaign will run until this month, with the RPA nominating six players aged 23 and under* who have shone for their side in all competitions and will culminate in creating the ultimate Under 23 XV of the Season.

Fans will then get the chance to vote for their most valuable player (MVP) of the Month in a vote via the RPA’s official website.

The winners and all nominees will be put on the RPA long shortlist for the final “15 Under 23” which will be selected by the RPA’s Players Board 2021/22 next month.

The final team selection will be announced at the RPA Awards on 25th May 2022. Fans will also get the opportunity to vote for their ultimate XV for the chance of winning an exclusive prize.

The nominees for April's MVP of the Month are:

• Henry Arundell - London Irish
• Orlando Bailey - Bath Rugby
• Jamie Blamire - Newcastle Falcons
• Andy Christie - Saracens
• Harri Doel - Worcester Warriors
• Jacob Umaga – Wasps

 The vote will open on Tuesday 3^rd May at 1pm and close on Friday 6^th May at 1pm. The winner will be announced in the following week.
