6:52 pm
but before this much—changed gb squad can put into practise in what they have learned in tokyo is that they had to make sure they get to the games. the first chance to do that is if england win the upcoming eurohockey championship but this new—look team under new management have struggled winning just three from 16 in the recent pro league event. we are inconsistent. but the girls have stayed positive even though we have not gotten the results, they still have belief and i definitely have belief that we can do well at the euros. but as current 0lympic champions, the pressure to qualify is real. there is that bit in the back of the mind of what if that doesn't happen. but we are at the stage where we are trying to knit everything together. and i think it is starting to come and hopefully the results will come along with that. we are very realistic of where we are at but at the same time i think the world of hockey is showing that anyone is capable of beating anybody at any moment. i mean, look at rio last time, we were ranked number seven.

crazy. maybe you have to have a screw loose in your head. nothing beats the adrenaline of coming feeling you've your best. it would be great to see more women in fall. it does not matter about your gender. i think there is that one level where you can still be in the same level playing field and same ca i’s same level playing field and same cars as men. nabila tejpar is keeping the sport and her family. her dad and granddad were both rally drivers. i'm really scared to sit with her because i think she drives too fast for me because she is still my too fast for me because she is still b too fast for me because she is still ' l. too fast for me because she is still my baby girl. in respect of diversity as well i think it is awesome because it is few and far between that you see an asian woman. every time i talked my friends they ask what she does. my daughter tressa rally car, excuse me? 15 for weft long. i'm learning the language because this is a t —— team sport. you're going at such speed that she needs some instructions. that is it.
