The Girls Squad includes four players who have been called up for their first international tournament. Goalkeeper Jennifer Mashford, and outfield players Alice Sharp, Emma O’Nien and Shona McCallin will all receive their first taste of international hockey in Cardiff.
Girls Head Coach Nick Clark said “After a tournament in Barcelona in which we improved steadily we have picked a squad that has experience and youth. Some new players have been brought in to give players an opportunity to prove themselves. We will no doubt face different problems in the home Nations than we did in Europe and it will be a good test of whether we can adapt.’
The boys squad includes two new players with Shane Acton and David Overton joining the international set-up.
