Senior Women begin World Cup Qualifier Preparation with GB Challenge
The interim coaching team of Chris Duncan and Vikki Bunce have named a 20 player squad for a two match series against the Great Britain Elite Development Programme (EDP) at Peffermill, Edinburgh. The matches will take place on Sunday and Monday with PB’s at 6.15pm and 7.30pm respectively.
Head Coach Duncan said, “The girls have trained hard over the last few weeks and taken on board all of the ideas we have presented. We are really looking forward to seeing them implement these ideas in a live game situation. An enormous thanks to GB EDP for travelling to support our preparation for such an important competition. On a personal level, it is really exciting to have our first games together as a brand new coaching team and playing group.”
The matches begin the preparation phase for the World Cup Qualifier being held in Italy in late October – when one team from the eight participants will qualify for the FIH Women’s World Cup to be held in Spain and the Netherlands in June 2022.
