Scotland Men set to play Czech Rep
Scotland’s Men’s national hockey team will travel to Prague for a three-game challenge against Czech Republic.
It is an exciting time for the men’s team as they kick off their qualifying campaign for the World Cup in 2018. The team has made a great start to the summer by winning a 4-Nations tournament in Poland as part of their preparation for Hockey World League 1 in September. Hockey World League 1 will be held on 6-11 September at the National Hockey Centre in Glasgow.
The opening game against Czech Republic will take place at 6pm on Friday 12 August 2016; the second meeting will be the following day at 5pm; and the third and final encounter will take place on Sunday 14 August 2016 at 12.30pm
Nicolas Parkes is on 49 caps for Scotland and could be in line for a milestone 50th cap in the games in Prague.
Scotland Coach Derek Forsyth said: “The games against the Czech Republic will be a good challenge for us as we continue with our preparation for the WL 1 tournament. We’re looking to build on our performances from our previous camps.”
