Do we know all 16 teams and captains?

Dunno about all the captains Dan but did see on twitter, APAT looking for players to represent  Canada, USA and Australia..

Wonder if Russia get an invite, they have some pretty awesome OH/HL players on Stars *cough*  

Going to stick my neck out and predict the 16 teams.. although it only states a capacity for 16 teams so dunno if it is clever wording and may be that 12-14 teams compete??

1. England
2. Scotland
3. Ireland (Republic)
4. Wales
5. France
6. Portugal
7. Poland
8. Canada
9. USA
10 Australia
11 Netherlands
12 Italy
13 Germany
14. Ireland (Northern)

Hmmm 2 more???  Can"t think but perhaps there may be a few others out there with ideas..

15 China?
16 India?

^^^^^^ Complete stab in the dark

Not sure about the list Carl, but loving your prediction

[s4ooter]

Maybe Spain?

Maybe Spain?

Yes indeed!! Obv choice  

[Gup9y]

I"m sure that India could submit a team but be expensive for them to travel

[DodgyEnd (Tom APAT.be)]

I"m from Belgium and I have a friend coming with me... so Belgium perhaps :p

[Careybear]

Does anyone know Karen Frank.....she"s won a couple things in the past and i met her at the GUKPT London in 2009 and i know she"s from Wisconsin...any help would be appreciated.

Be fascinated to see what will make up 16 teams.

Spain didn"t make the euros last year and holland have been regular no shows. I also know that Canada are struggling for numbers.

On the flip side, China and India are great shouts, and just can"t believe there aren"t any Scandi teams.

[Laxie]

As much as it pains me to say it, maybe a North American team that combines USA/Canada?  Might be the only way forward with those two considering the hassle each year.

It"s a shame some teams are scratching around for players, whilst I have to turn down so many who are desperate to play. Need to get the English applicants looking at old family trees to discover long lost heritage to some of these countries that are struggling to field teams.

[ForthThistle]

Do we have confirmed schedule for the event?

Hope there is a round of HU and PLO.

And have points weighted towards winning the SnG rather than nitting it up for the extra point (Steve)
