Six players from a club in West Wickham have been chosen to represent Great Britain at the 20th Underwater Hockey World Championships in Canada.
The competition, which has 42 teams from 18 countries involved, is currently taking place and will finish on July 28 in Quebec City.
West Wickham Underwater Hockey Club chairman, Paul Pizzey, said: “We are extremely proud of the talent and experience in our club acknowledged by the selection of players for the Elite and Masters GB Squads and two members in a pivotal role in the small but highly experienced coaching team.”
In underwater hockey, players use short sticks to propel a metal puck through the water, while wearing a mask, snorkel and fins.
The six West Wickham players are Steve Baldwin, Scott Allen, Maddy Hollick, Jos Greenhalgh, Karl Speed and Pete Hodge.
