Ep. 6 - Ross Stott (Scottish Hockey) & Jill Boon (Belgium Hockey); Hockey Dream Team

Hockey Dream Team is the twelfth season of the Half Court Press Podcast. In this series we hear from a variety of members of the global hockey community, including players, coaches, umpires and journalists. In each episode Tao MacLeod speaks with hockey personalities, about topics relevant to them and the sport. Then the guests give their picks for a six-a-side hockey team. One guest chooses a men's team, whilst the other puts forward a women's side. The debate is then who we have for a combined mixed gender six-a-side Dream Team. Ross Stott is a former Scottish international, who has gone to two Commonwealth Games, Delhi 2010 and Glasgow 2014 and has played over 100 times for his country. Hailing from Tayside, he started out with his local club Dundee Wanderers, before moving to play for Kelburne Hockey Club. After this he moved to England, where he played for Bowdon H.C. Now he is in his second stint at East Grinstead H.C. Ross picks the men’s six-a-side indoor dream team. Jill Boon is a former Belgium international, who represented her country at the London 2012 Olympics, as well as winning a silver medal at the 2017 EuroHockey Championships. Now she plays for Royal Racing Club de Bruxelles. She gives us a bit of an insight into this Central European league and what is happening more generally in her home nation. Jill picks the women’s six-a-side indoor dream team. The Half Court Press Podcast is available on… iTunes Spotify Google Podcasts Apple Podcasts Breaker Overcast Anchor Pocket Casts RadioPublic
