Recognition at the highest level has resulted in selection of three of our Merlins girls at the upper echelons of Scottish Hockey.

Jess Freeland and Ailsa Phimister have been selected for the Under 15 and Under 16 Scotland squads respectively, representing their country at the highest level of hockey for their age.

Sophie Hill will also play in the Scottish Hockey Super Series for Dundee Devils, a great achievement and an opportunity to showcase her skills as part of what is still a new and exciting event with plenty of media coverage.

Congratulations and good luck in your National endeavours girls!
