‘I am very happy with the work we have put in leading into this tournament and am pleased with where we are. We have a good, balanced squad and go into this tournament aiming to make at least the semi-finals.

Once in the knock-outs, anything can happen,’ said Bishop. Grantleigh’s best finish has been eighth on two occasions.
