Team Bath Buccs duo named in Ireland squad for 2020 EuroHockey Indoor Championships in Spain
Team Bath Buccaneers duo John Jackson and Stephen West have been named in the Ireland men’s squad for the 2020 EuroHockey Indoor Championship III tournament in Santander, Spain.
The vastly-experienced Jackson (pictured), who represented his country at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, will captain Ireland at the five-nation event from January 17-19.
Also in the 12-strong squad is goalkeeper West, who last week graduated from the University of Bath after completing a four-year PhD Research Programme in Health.
Dr. West over and out! 4 years of hard work but worth it for the picture! Couldn’t have done it without the endless support from family and friends! Thank you @Dr_CMcKay @RSatBath @UniofBath @drkeithstokes @statman_sean #graduation pic.twitter.com/cPD68g5xm1
