Meet Team England in Hannover – Supporters Thank You Event

Team England would like to show our appreciation to our supporters who travel to Germany for the European Box Championships by inviting them to a supporters event at the team hotel on Friday 5th August, 17:00-19:00.

This will be the evening before our final game, so let’s hope it’s a significant final game. For those not playing it will be an opportunity to enjoy a drink and chat with the squad and support staff, then look forward to the finals day!

Hotel: Mercure Hotel, Hannover Medical Park, Foedor-Lynen Str. 1, 30625

Supporters are encouraged to bring England attire to stand out amongst the crowd. Bring an England flag. Even better, wear some supporters gear from our team shop, which also helps us financially with tournament costs.

If we progress into the later stages of the tournament as planned, our final two games should be Thursday 4th August at 16:30 and Saturday 6th August. If things don’t go quite as planned our Thursday game could be at 13:30 with our final game on Friday.

Play-In: ENGLAND v CZECH REPUBLIC

8:11 (0:4, 4:3, 2:2, 2:2)

Game Stats | Rewatch Game

England put down a marker for the upcoming European Championships, going toe-to-toe with one of the favourites for gold, Czech Republic.

England were guilty of too many unforced errors during the 1st period but rallied for the remainder of the game. The score was 8:10 with 2 minutes remaining but Czech scored the final goal and were able to run down the clock.

3rd Place: ENGLAND v POLAND

12:2 (4:0, 0:0, 1:1, 7:1)

Game Stats | Rewatch Game

The disappointment in not making the final and the chance to play Germany was put to one side as next up was Poland.

A comfortable win but still plenty to work on before the Euros. Box is described as a game of runs and England had those runs in the 1st and 4th periods.
