Scotland U18 girls face German test in Cologne

Scotland U18 Women will ramp up their preparations for this summer’s EuroHockey Nations U18 Championship with a two match series against Germany in Cologne this week.

While the Germans will complete in a different pool from the Scots during July’s event in Santander, Spain, they will be given a clear indication of the challenge facing them when they come up against one of the continent’s hockey giants.

The Germany series precedes a tri-nations tournament against Ireland and Wales in Glasgow next month, before further matches against Wales and England in June.

Scotland U18 Women: Susan Al Haddid, Ellie Hutchison, Catriona Booth (all Western Wildcats), Mille Steiger, Flora Walker, Erin Gilchrist (all Clydesdale Western), Amy Costello, Laura Swanson (both Inverleith), McKenzie Bell, Lorna Cruickshank (both CALA Edinburgh), Lucy Inglis, Katherine Holdgate (both Watsonians), Morven Duff (Merlins Gordonians), Ellie Halliday (Kelburne Ladies), Leia MacKinnon (Bordes Fjordhus Rievers), Charlotte Watson (Dundee Wanderers), Sophie Andrews (Argyle), Tess Hannah (Valleys, Australia).
