Announcement of the men's squad for the World Cup in Germany was delayed until today due to injury worries, particularly to Cannock's Barry Middleton who suffered an injury in training a week ago. There are no surprises in the squad, which is largely unchanged from the World Cup qualifiers earlier this year. The squad is: Brothers (GK), Richard Mantell, Simon Mantell, and Clarke (Reading), Kirkham (East Grinstead), Alexander, Daly, Garrard, Moore, Tindall, and Marsden (Surbiton), Goudie, Bleby (Loughborough Stds), Jones, Cordon, Middleton, Fair (GK) (Cannock), and Hawes (Amsterdam).
The first England match, which is against India, is at 14:00 (CET) and is scheduled to be broadcast live by Eurosport. Check Europsport schedules to see whether the broadcast will be available in the UK.
TalkHockeyRadio will be at the World Cup for the crossover and classification matches, and the finals and place games.
