“We’ve had a busy summer already with games against FIH Pro League Nations Spain, Argentina and Australia. I am happy with where the squad is, at this point in time. Wales and Austria are the ideal opponents in the coming weeks to help the squad prepare for EuroHockey Championship II. We will work hard on developing our attacking playing against Wales and Austria with the focus on winning these games to build confidence going into the July tournament. I know the squad are very excited about the opportunity to play games in Ireland and we hope the Irish Hockey community can get behind the team over the coming weeks as we aim to gain a spot in the Olympic Qualifier”
