Head Coach Ricardo says: "We are very excited to have the opportunity to repeat our recent history and attempt to achieve qualification to the Promotion Round. A few changes - due to injuries and coaching options - mean that we will have a renewed squad benefiting from this level of exposure. We recognise the quality of the opponents however, and although having another opportunity at the Emerging Nations later in the year, our goal is to qualify now."
