Great Britain have named their team for next month’s men’s Olympic Qualifiers in Cardiff.
Head Coach Pete Russell has named a 22-player roster with forwards Cam Critchlow, Sean Norris and Brandon Whistle set to win full debut caps at the tournament.
GB will face Romania, China and Serbia at the Vindico Arena from Thursday 8th to Sunday 11th February.
The group winners will progress to Final Qualifying in August 2024 – the final stage before the Winter Olympics in Italy.
Russell said: “As ever, we had plenty of options and it was tough getting it down to a final 22.
“I really like the look of our squad and I am pleased to add Cam (Critchlow), Sean (Norris) and Brandon (Whistle), who were close to be selected for last year’s World Championship.
“This is the start of another big year for us and it’s great to be hosting a tournament on home ice in the UK again.”
