GB Under-20s Women Initial Squad Assemble for Camp

Great Britain’s Under-20s Women have an initial squad of 15 selected ahead of the upcoming European Championships.

Seven of the squad played in the WBBL last season, while seven were at colleges in the US.

Only two players from last summer’s roster remain in Chloe Gaynor and Imani Whittington, though Savannah Wilkinson did play at the Euros in 2016.

Dani Lozzi, Flora Durgerian and Shauna Harrison all make the step up from GB’s 2017 Under-18 side, while GB Under-16 captain Loren Christie is also included.

Jeff Jones has been confirmed as the new Head Coach with Krumesh Patel an assistant along with GB’s Dominique Allen and Natalie Chaloner – who both play under Jones at Manchester Mystics.
