WCOAP 2011 - Official ENGLAND Team Thread
« on: July 15, 2011, 20:46:14 PM »
APAT are very pleased to confirm that Rob Swindells will captain the team from England.  Possibly the hardest job of the lot ?  The team from England always seem to have a heightened level of expectation for these events, with the largest pool of players to choose from, the selection process is never an easy one.  Disappointing results in 2010, but England will look to improve on their bronze medal finish in 2009.




This thread will be updated by Rob regarding team selection.

CONFIRMED TEAM

Rob Swindells (Capt)
Rupinder Bedi
James Barber
Stuart Ward

Firstly, I would like to say how honoured and proud I am to be selected as England captain for this. I am really excited about this and am determined that England put on a top show in front of our fans on home soil.

Secondly, I need a team. So if you are english and want to play then simply PM me. I know that there are going to be some tough decisions with this but I"m sure you all trust me to get them right ;)

Let me be the first to post

Come on England!!!!!
