Scotland U16 squads in action against Ireland and Wales

Scotland’s U16 Boys and Girls will travel to Wrexham, Wales for a Three Nations round-robin tournament against Wales and Ireland on 5-6 July.
Looking forward to the trip, Scotland U16 Girls Head Coach Bill Robson said, “This is the tournament we have been working towards throughout the year and the opposition will be tough but we can definitely do well in Wrexham.
“Although the trip to play England, Holland and Germany at Easter would seem to be more prestigious, it came at the very beginning of our annual cycle. We were punching above our weight and the exercise was almost entirely one of defence.
“The girls equipped themselves admirably against arguably the best U16 teams in the world, so we are looking to take this opportunity to show where we are and what we have learned since then.
“As ever the objective is one of player development, preparing the girls for the U18s, U21s, and seniors, where progress is key. However we will take this tournament seriously and will go there to try to win. The progress of the team over the year has been commendable and the girls have all worked exceptionally hard on their fitness and skills. Tournament play is another, very important part of their development.”
