Crookwell has two representatives in their respective squads. Shelley Watson and Kizziah Plumb were chosen in the squad teams, which will start the process in moving towards the team selections for the Indoor Hockey World Cup in February 2018.
The squad contains an exciting mix of experienced players in addition to some very talented young players who have come through the junior ranks and development tours in recent years. The squad includes 10 players who played in the successful 2015 Indoor World Cup campaign. The World Cup could be played in Berlin in 2018.
The squad will come together in Canberra mid-year for a three-day selection camp where the final team of 12 will be selected.
I am so excited by the quality of this squad and am really looking forward to working with the players over the next 12 months.
- Stewart Fenton, indoor hockey head coach
- The Gazette will follow the journey of Shelly and Kizziah in future editions.
