MAXIMUM EURO POINTS FOR ENGLAND BOYS

After the disappointment of the Junior World Cup, where England finished 16th, England's under 18 boys are enjoying better luck in the EuroHockey Youth Nations Championships in Nivelles, Belgium. After two matches, England and Germany are both on maximum points, with Germany holding the lead in Pool A with an advantage on goal difference of one goal.

Yesterday England beat Scotland 6-0 with goals from Aathavan Lingeswaran (2), Ross Gilham-Jones (2), Scott Evans and Jon Kinder. Today (Tuesday) England overcame Poland 3-2, although we do not have details of the scorers at the present time.

We have one England result from the women's Pool A , where France were beaten 5-1. England's scorers were Georgia Rawlinson (2), Holly Brown, Rachel Mack and Kate Maxey. England were due to play Belgium this evening but we do not yet have a result.

England's next matches are tomorrow against Germany (men) and Ireland (women).
