Scots in Celtic Cup campaign

Scotland Senior Men travel to Northern Ireland this
week for the annual Celtic Cup, taking place on 29 June-1
July.
The Scots will encounter a Celtic Cup with a twist,
as South Africa is invited to participate in the round-robin
tournament alongside familiar foes Ireland and Wales. France has
withdrawn from the competition this year. Scotland will begin the
competition against Wales on Friday, before tackling hosts Ireland
and South Africa on the following two days.
Kelburne pairing Alan Forsyth and Michael Bremner
continue a busy summer of international hockey after competing in
the U21 Celtic Cup in Wales last weekend, while striker Kenny Bain
returns to the squad after missing the matches against England ‘A’.
Goalkeepers Jamie Cachia and Allan Dick come in for Mark Fulton and
Phil Carr.
South Africa will provide a strong test for the
Scots, Irish and Welsh as they continue their preparations for the
London 2012 Olympic Games. The South Africans will come up against
Great Britain, Argentina, Australia, Pakistan and Spain in Pool A
of the hockey competition in London so will be aiming to enter the
Games on the back of a successful warm-up campaign.
Scotland Men: Jamie Cachia (Sheffield HC), Allan
Dick (Holcolme HC), William Marshall, Chris Nelson, Iain
Scholefield, Gareth Hall, Michael Bremner, Alan Forsyth (all
Glynhill Hotel Kelburne), Dan Coultas (Durham University), Wei

(Beeston), Callum Duke (Edinburgh University), Christopher
Grassick, Fergus Dunn (both Surbiton), Kenneth Bain (HTC Hurley),
