Congratulations to the School of Sport boys listed below who have recently represented Scotland Under 16s in Test Match Series in both Belgium and Poland.

In Belgium it was goals galore as Seoras Gaughan, Aidan Black, Craig Morton, Ben Peterson and Stewart Coghlan battled out 3 matches. The scores for the matches were:

Belgium 6-3 Scotland

Belgium 7-6 Scotland

Belgium 3-1 Scotland

Aidan Black scored his 1st goal for Scotland.

Having taken great confidence from their performances, if not their results, from Belgium, Craig Morton, Seoras Gaughan, Ben Peterson and Aidan Black travelled to Poland for another Test series. This turned, into an injury nightmare for the Scots with Seoras and Ben both getting injured in off the ball incidents as the Poles did their best to stop the more skilful Scottish team. Despite the injury set backs the boys performed well. The scores from the trip were:

Poland 3-1 Scotland

Poland 5-6 Scotland

Poland 6-3 Scotland

Aidan Black was back scoring again and Ben Peterson scored his 1 st goals for Scotland.

It was a very physical trip indeed for the boys but a valuable lesson learned which will provide invaluable experience for future trips with the Junior Scotland Squad.

Well done to Jay Cheyne who represented the Scotland Development Squad in matches against the Ulster Girls provincial team in Belfast. It was a big step up for Jay who played in a variety of positions and as a result of her performances she has been picked to play in the 3 test series against Wales in June 2008 for Scotland Under 16s.

Lauren Grant has been picked for the Scotland Under 18 Training Squad, as has Josh Cairns who is making good progress after a niggling back injury.
