A New Season
posted at 10:10 - 16 Oct 2007 by Gemma
An action-packed 2 years lies ahead as we build up to World Cup 2009. The next 2 seasons roll into each other without much of a break but with plenty of opportunities for players to stake a claim for a spot in the final world cup squad.
After Home Internationals in April 2008, Wales will enter the Prague Cup in June and shortly after that move on to Helsinki to defend our European Championship title. The Home Internationals will take place in Wales this season and we will be looking to continue our steady progress over the last two seasons and this time take the title on home soil........
