Grange transition ahead of Scottish hockey title defence

It is a period of transition for Grange as the men bid to defend the Scottish Premiership title.

The Edinburgh club begin with a visit to Fettes from newly-promoted Dunfermline Carnegie on Saturday.

And coach Stevie Grubb, confirmed that a number of players including Calum Lothian and Aidan McQuade are unavailable for the start of the season because of injury.

Grubb, who will have Steve McCurry assisting him this season after his move from near neighbours, Erskine Stewarts Melville, said: “They will filter back in as we progress through our first few games.

“Thankfully, we have a strong squad from last year and we will take the opportunity to look at a few of our youngsters who are coming up through the ranks.”

Grubb also confirmed that the club have a number of new additions, some of whom have been at training, plus two new players that will train with the club in the week ahead of the opening game.

He added: “It has been an interesting pre-season.”
