Sarah Robertson begins her training with Great Britain
Scotland Internationalist Sarah Robertson has joined the Great Britain Programme and has started training with them earlier this week.
Robertson who recently captained her first match for Scotland at the recent camp against Ireland in early November, has been playing her first half of the season in Belgium for KHC Leuven.
The former Edinburgh University player has 52 caps playing for Scotland.
‘I am absolutely delighted to be included in the Great Britain squad in the lead up to Rio 2016. After experiencing two summers of training full time with the Scotland team I am really looking forward to this challenge and feel ready to take this next step in my hockey career.
‘I am really grateful for the support of the University of Edinburgh and Winning students; both allowing me to commit to life as a full time athlete.’
