Scotland men’s squad announced for EuroHockey Championship II
Derek Forsyth has announced his Scotland men’s squad for Eurohockey Championship II to be held in Gniezno, Poland from 11th – 22nd August.
Scotland is aiming to gain a return to the top tier of international hockey while securing a place in the World Cup qualifiers in August.
The Blue Sticks will feature in Pool B alongside Austria, Ukraine and Switzerland. Pool A features Ireland, Italy, Poland and Croatia.
The Scots will get their campaign underway against Ukraine before taking on Austria on day two. After a rest day Scotland will play Switzerland before the latter stages of the tournament.
The squad sees the return of goal-machine Alan Forsyth, fresh from Tokyo, and will see Robbie Croll, Rob Field and Andy McConnell play their first international tournaments in the blue of Scotland. Dan Coultas and Hamish Imrie will both play their first international tournament for Scotland since 2016.
