Clan ace Buesa set to fly the flag again Jordan heads for training camp
Braehead Clan’s Jordan Buesa is set to join up with the Great Britain camp today.
Ice Hockey UK’s Great Britain Programme Board has confirmed the first sessions of the season will take place in Sheffield this week.
A regular in the GB Under 20s side, Buesa has once again been named in the squad.
The three- day camp, which is being held in Ice Sheffield from Wednesday to Friday, will be a first chance for the GB junior coaches to take a look at potential players for the season ahead.
A GB Under-20s’ camp will be held on Wednesday, with the U18s’ taking place on Thursday and the U16s’ on Friday.
IHUK national development head coach, Tony Hand, said: “Bringing all three camps together in the space of three days makes a lot of sense.
“The joined-up thinking means there will be much more continuity in the GB programme.
“We have an exciting line- up of coaches now with the new staff joining some very experienced GB junior coaches.”
And Slava Koulikov, head coach of Great Britain Under-20s, added: “There will be close to 40 players attending first U20s camp of the year.
“There will be some guys we know from last year and also new exciting young prospects from all over the country.
“We hav e been preparing well and we are looking forward to getting to know the guys, evaluating and working with them.”
