Great Britain head coach Pete Russell not joining players at IIHF World Championships in Latvia
GREAT BRITAIN head coach Pete Russell will not be joining up with his players for the World Championships in Latvia for family reasons.
Assistant coaches Adam Keefe and Corey Neilson, who have been working with the players since their training camp started almost two weeks ago in Coventry, will instead preside over the GB campaign which gets underway against Russia this Saturday.
Having spent the past nine months away in Germany where his DEL2 side Freiburg reached the playoff semi-finals before losing in five games to Bietigheim-Bissingen, Russell has only just recently returned home.
