The summer has brought
with it a plethora of International action at various age groups and the
University has been widely represented. In Boston, USA, Sophie Bray, Kirsty
Dawson and incoming fresher Sarah Haycroft helped England U21 to fourth place
in the Women’s Junior World Cup after a 2-1 loss to Korea in the Bronze Medal
playoff. The girls were unfortunate not to make the final after a gutwrenching
golden goal loss to Argentina
in the semi’s.The result was England’s best
ever.
On a senior level Nick
Rees represented Wales men’s side (bronze medal) and Alys Brooks and Tina Evans
the Ladies at the EuroHockey Nations. Andrew Gooderham was in the squad for the
England v India series while Susie Gilbert has been named
in the England Squad for the upcoming EuroHockey Nations in Amsterdam.
