Manchester City forward Jess Park says it was "inspirational" to get the chance to train with the Lionesses ahead of this summer's Women's World Cup.
Park, who enjoyed a hugely successful loan spell with Everton last term, scored just 79 seconds into her England debut in November. To date, the 21-year-old has earned four senior caps, and, while she was omitted from Sarina Wiegman's 23-player World Cup squad, she was included on the stand-by list alongside Manchester United defender Maya Le Tissier.
Park was set to make the trip to Australia earlier this month, however she was forced to withdraw from England's pre-tournament training camp due to the recurrence of the shoulder injury that brought her domestic season to a premature end. And while the highly-rated forward admits she's disappointed to be missing out on this summer's tournament, she believes the experience gained while training with Wiegman's squad was invaluable.
"It was really inspirational just to be there and be getting ready with the group to go to the World Cup," she tells the Manchester Evening News.

"It was a really good experience to be in that tournament mode. I’ve been to camps before but to see how people prepare for tournaments and really work together as a team was brilliant and it was a really nice environment to be in.
"My injury was something that I just needed to get right now and it’s important to do that before the season starts. I don’t think anyone wants it to become an issue further down the line so it's about making sure I get this right and get myself prepped and ready for the season to start."
