Scotland on top against Wales in U18 Tri-Nations

Scotland’s U18 youth international squads were back in action yesterday as the U18 Tri-Nations tournament at the Glasgow National Hockey Centre got underway.

Scotland U18 Boys suffered mixed fortunes in two matches against Wales; two goals from Guy Rowson, plus strikes from Chris McFadden and Luke Cranney gave the home side a convincing 4-0 win in the first encounter, before the Scots went down 3-2 to the Welsh in the second match, Patrick Christie scoring a double for the national side.
