Team selected for 2024 World Cup
During the recently completed Hockey Australia Masters Championships in Perth, teams to contest the 2024 World Cup were selected.
Following a successful Trans-Tasman campaign, the Over 35's team again boasts a long list of debutants, with only four returning players. The team is captained by Ian McHugh (TAS) with Cody Tribe (NSW) and Sam McCambridge (TAS) making up the leadership group. Goalkeeper Chris Dick is the only other player to have previously worn the green and gold. Coached by Barry Reid (NSW) with a manager and trainer to be named at a later date, the team has already started planning for what promises to be an exciting Masters Hockey World Cup campaign in Cape Town, South Africa.
