More international call-ups for University of Bath-based hockey players

Anna Reynolds will this weekend become the latest University of Bath hockey player to gain international recognition during a memorable 2016-17 season.

 

The Social Sciences second-year student has been selected to play for England Women U21s in their four Easter Weekend clashes against the United States at Bisham Abbey.

 

Sport & Exercise Science student Maria Jones is a reserve for the England squad, who will be in action on Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday.

 

Both Reynolds and Jones play for the University of Bath in BUCS [British Universities & Colleges Sport] competitions and helped Team Bath Buccaneers Ladies gain promotion to the Investec Women’s National Hockey League.

 

It has been an excellent year for the hockey programme at the University of Bath, with Sport Performance student and Trendell Sports Scholar Peter Scott making his senior debut for England’s men alongside fellow Team Bath Buccaneers player Liam Sanford.

 

Junior player Will Prentice – who has been with Buccs since the age of nine – has also been selected to make his England U16B debut in a series of matches against Northern Ireland, taking place at Lilleshall National Sports Centre from April 29 to May 1.
