NEWS: Lacho heads for Olympic qualifiers

Aspray Glasgow West sponsored Glasgow Clan forward Robert Lachowicz says it’s always a “fun challenge” as he gets ready for another tilt at the Olympic Games this week.

Lachowicz is part of Pete Russell’s squad as the Great Britain’s Men’s national team take on China, Serbia and Romania in Cardiff’s Vindico Arena in qualification for the games in Milan and Cortina in 2026.

And the Clan #7, in his fourth Olympic qualification campaign for GB, says the more youthful look to the team this year could be something to watch.

“It’s always a pleasure and an honour to be selected for the Great Britain team,” he said. “It’s going to be a good challenge for us as we look to find our way to the Olympics with a successful qualifying stage.

“Then hopefully we can look to the next round and see where we go from there.  It’s always a hard road to get to the Olympic Games, but it’s a fun challenge.

“We have something of a younger team this year so it will be interesting to see how they come into the squad, and deal with stepping into the international set up.

“Our team is a solid one and hopefully we can get the results we need to get the job done and move into the next stage.”
