Spain announce Olympic hockey squad
Spain coach Dani Martin has finalised his Olympic squad.
Ten players from four years ago still form part of the team: goalkeeper Quico Cortés, Juan Fernández, Ramón Alegre, Sergi Enrique, David Alegre, Roc Oliva, Edi Tubau, Pol Amat, Alex Fábregas and captain Santi Freixa.
For Amat it will be his fifth Olympic Games.
The London bound group of players is also near identical with the team that finished runners-up in the Champions Trophy held in New Zealand in December last year.
The P accreditations for substitute players will go to Andrés Mir and goalkeeper Xavi Trenchs, with the latter having already had the P athlete role in Beijing.
Spain Olympic hockey squad: Quico Cortés (GK), Juan Fernández, Manel Terraza, Ramón Alegre, Sergi Enrique, David Alegre, Roc Oliva, Marc Sallés, Edi Tubau, Pol Amat, Pau Quemada, Litus Ballbé, Alex Fábregas, Miki Delàs, Xavi Lleonart, Santi Freixa
