| James Jewell Selected in Australian U17 Schoolboys Team - Tuesday, 6 January 2009Beechworth High School product James Jewell is officially one of the best junior hockey talents in Australia.
Jewell, 16, shone at the recent Pacific School Games in Canberra, playing seven games in seven days, and caught selectors’ eyes with his play at centre-half.
He was rewarded with selection in the Australian Under-16 Schoolboys team that will tour Hong Kong and China in July next year.
He said he enjoyed the challenge of playing at the PSG, which featured all Australian states as well as teams from Japan and Singapore.
“It was quite interesting playing Japan and Singapore, they play different styles of hockey to the Australian states,” he said.
“They’re a bit quicker and more sensible in the way they play and we had to adapt.
“Playing seven games in a row was a real test for the body too.”
The Jewell family will have to raise close to $7000 to fund the trip and James said he was really looking forward to it.
“I have no idea how we’ll raise the money but I can’t wait to go (on the tour),” he said.
Jewell made his debut for the Albury-Wodonga Spitfires senior team last season and said the experience playing in the State League One competition did wonders for his game.
“It was really intense but enjoyable at the same time,” he said.
“It is really good hockey at that level and I certainly learned a lot.”
Meanwhile, Albury High School’s Jocelyn Bartram also enjoyed a stellar PSG carnival and was named as shadow (reserve) goalkeeper for the Australian Under-16 Schoolgirls team.
That team will tour the UK in July but despite missing out on the main squad, Bartram won’t be too upset if she doesn’t make the trip.
“I’ll get another chance to make the team as I’m only 15 and I can try and make it next year,” she said.
“It would be great to go but I won’t be wishing the other goalkeeper any harm.”
Congratulations to both players. |

For those players listed above training will start on Tuesday January 6th and you should keep an eye on the Web site for updated information closer to this date. The squad consists of 19 players and from this a team of 14 will be chosen in the first two weeks of training after Christmas.
