THE Zimbabwe Hockey Association have announced a provisional squad for the Under-21 women World Cup scheduled for Santiago, Chile, later this year.
The association is working with an enlarged group of 38 players ahead of the December 6-16 tournament.
However, the squad will be trimmed to a smaller number as they draw closer to the event.
Zimbabwe booked their place in the global show-piece after securing second place at the Africa Junior Cup (AJC) in Ismailia, Egypt, finishing with six points from a possible nine.
It will be the fourth time that Zimbabwe appear at the Junior World Cup having participated in 2005, 2016 and 2021.
This year’s qualification makes it three consecutive Junior World Cup appearances.
The 2021 edition took place in April last year in Potchefstroom, South Africa.
