Scots to appear at the Sultan of Johor Cup
Scotland’s Tommy Austin and Calum Douglas have been names in an 18-strong men’s squad of under 21 players competing at the Sultan of Johor Cup.
Scotland’s Jamie Telfer has also been selected to be one of the tournament’s umpires.
The five-day competition starts on 19 October as the GB team takes on the likes of India, Australia and New Zealand.
The GB squad features 12 players who have competed at this Sultan of Johor Cup before and new players as the tournament provides an excellent development opportunity for players to experience large crowds, tournament hockey and non-European opposition.
In recent years, GB has enjoyed success with first place finishes in 2018 and 2019 and a number of players have used this event to gain valuable experience ahead of joining senior teams.
