In this context, Trudee Lindblade said, “Only 6 teams will participate in the tournament, so the concept of team Great Britain will be in the interest of both of us.”

The Chief Executive of the Scotland Board also revealed that ECB officials are adopted positive towards this new plan. He also informed that England and Wales is going to host the World Cup tournaments in 2026 and then 2030. Meanwhile, Los Angeles Olympics has emerged as a new opportunity.

Except the men’s football team, the athletes of the United Kingdom are representing Great Britain in the Olympic Games. But the British Olympic Association is trying to represent all its athletes in the 2028 Olympics to represent the flag of Great Britain.
