UNDER 20 SQUAD HEADS FOR CANADA
Tuesday, 13 Mar 2007
Scotland Under 20s will gain first hand experience of their FIFA U20 World Cup base next week, as they head to Canada to play two internationals against the hosts.
The Under 20s will be playing in Victoria and Burnaby, on Canada's west coast, in the World Cup this summer. As part of their preparation for the big event, they meet Canada in Burnaby on Saturday 24 March, and again in Victoria three days later.
Most of the players from last season's outstanding UEFA campaign are still going strong in the squad, but team coaches Archie Gemmill and Tommy Wilson have brought in promising defenders Kevin McCann of Hibs and Ryan O'Leary of Kilmarnock to provide additional strength to a talented group.
The team fly out next Wednesday from Glasgow to Vancouver, giving them three days to acclimatise before their first match, at Swangard Stadium in Burnaby. They then head for Vancouver Island for the second match at Royal Athletic Park in Victoria on Tuesday, and return to Scotland on Wednesday.

I think this tournament will be LIVE in Hong Kong, hopefully I can see Cave-Brown in action and that means I will see he play on right-back a few more times. He is the team captain I think?
