Scotland men’s World League 1 squad announcement
Scotland men’s Head Coach Derek Forsyth has announced his squad to compete at World League 1 in Glasgow next week.
The tournament will be played at the National Hockey Centre on 6-11 September and will see Scotland feature in a five team round robin tournament against Wales; Switzerland; Portugal; and Slovakia. The competition will determine which teams qualify for Round 2 events in early 2017. The 2016/17 World League competition will ultimately decide the teams that will qualify, alongside the Continental Champions and hosts, for the FIH World Cup in 2018.
It is an exciting time for Scotland’s men’s team as they kick-off their qualifying campaign for the World Cup in 2018. The team made a great start to the summer by winning a 4-Nations tournament in Poland, and then scoring 17 goals over three games against Czech Republic in Prague recently. The men’s final preparations for World League 1 saw the team score 16 over three games against Italy in Glasgow.
To come and support the team at World League 1, ticket information is available HERE.
