Head Coach Bill Baillie is happy with the selection and added:
"We are all excited to take part in our first competitive fixtures since 2019. The girls have worked hard over the last 18 months and we have tasted success in Portugal and Serbia. Looking at GB's opponents, Italy, Slovakia, Finland and Kosovo, we are under no illusion that the challenge will be tough, but we are ready to take it on".
Congratulations to the team and to the whole squad for a competitive preparation phase.
