Scotland women to play GB EDP this weekend
Scotland women are back in action on home soil as they take on GB Elite Development Programme (EDP) at 4pm on Saturday 11 June, and 12:30pm on Sunday 12 June at Peffermill.
Scotland come into the series in tremendous form following clean sweeps of victories over Wales in two recent test series’, on the back of winning two of the three matches in a series against Ireland in Belfast.
The Tartan Hearts have won five games in a row and seven out of their last eight games.
The uncapped test matches against the EDP this weekend come as part of Scotland’s preparations for this summer’s Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, and the EuroHockey Championships qualifier in Dunkirk.
At the upcoming Commonwealth Games in Birmingham Scotland has been drawn in Women’s Pool B with Australia; New Zealand; South Africa; and Kenya.
Straight after the Commonwealth Games the Scots head to Dunkirk for a EuroHockey Championships qualifier, where they will compete for a place at the top table of European hockey.
At the tournament Scotland will take on France; Switzerland and Austria on 24-27 August.
Entry is free.
