Scotland squad announced for European U19 Teams Championship
Scotland’s squad to take on the continent’s best at the 2024 European U19 Championships has been confirmed.
The Scots secured an excellent fifth place finish in last year’s event, and they will look to build on that in Bucharest later this month.
The strong line-up includes two debutants, with Bridge of Allan’s Squash Club Oliver Hunter and 15-year-old Murdo Mackenzie making their debut in Scotland’s under 19 team.
Three players will return to the team having played in last year’s event, including Scotland under 19 and 23 champion Robyn McAlpine, who reached a semi-final in a professional event for the first time last month.
Kyle Penman fresh off a National Championship win with his University of Pennsylvania teammates will complete in the blue of Scotland once more.
Crieff’s Anna Halliday, who competed at both the Junior World and European Team Championships last season completes the strong squad.
The European Mixed Team Squash Championship will run from Thursday 28th March to Sunday 31st March in Bucharest, Romania.
“We’re really looking forward to this event, and we have some great experience in the team with three players returning from the team which finished 5th last year, and two players making their debut in this competition.
“We are looking to carry the confidence we gained from last year’s performance into this event, and hopefully we can finish with another strong result.”
