England's scholarly outputs are documented in the University of Otago's OurArchive repository, featuring peer-reviewed journal articles primarily focused on injury epidemiology, biomechanics, and risk factors in rugby union. Notable publications include 'Match injuries in English youth academy and schools rugby union: an epidemiological study' (2013, co-authored with D.S. Palmer-Green), 'Collapsed scrums and collision tackles: what is the injury risk?' (2015, with S.P. Roberts, G. Trewartha, M. England, K. Stokes), 'Incidence and nature of medical attendance injuries in English community rugby union' (2014, with S. Roberts and others), and 'The epidemiology of injuries in English youth community rugby union' (2010, with C.M. Haseler, M.R. Carmont, M. England). Additional works encompass 'Concussion and head injuries in English community rugby union' (2017), 'Epidemiology of time-loss injuries in English community-level rugby union' (2013), 'Guidelines for community-based injury surveillance in rugby union' (2019, with J.C. Brown and others), 'Reducing musculoskeletal injury and concussion risk in schoolboy rugby players through a preventive movement control exercise programme' (2017), 'Injury and biomechanical perspectives on the rugby scrum: a review of the literature' (2015, with G. Trewartha and others), 'Engagement techniques and playing level impact the biomechanical and physiological response to dynamic scrummaging' (2015), and 'A modified prebind engagement process reduces biomechanical loading in rugby scrummaging' (2015). These contributions often involve collaborations with researchers from institutions such as the University of Bath and the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Statistical Applied Mathematics, addressing scrum safety, collision risks, and preventive strategies in community and youth rugby settings.
