U18 women’s national coach Franziska Busch: “The squad has changed in some positions compared to the November tournament. We would like to give other players a chance to show themselves and see them in international games. Our focus will be playing with the puck and playing in the offensive zone. We want to work on our ability to score and create chances. We also want to take the lessons we learned from the November tournament and develop further there. It's an important tournament on the way to the World Cup, which gives us another chance to work on certain things. We will have two more preparation measures before the World Cup, which is why the focus at this tournament is not yet directly on the World Cup, but rather on developing ourselves further as a team and taking the next step.”
