Three WAIS athletes have been named in Ric Charelsworth’s Kookaburra squad for the series against Belgium scheduled for next February. Ian Burcher, Fergus Kavanagh and Kiel Brown will all be in action for the national side when they face the tenth ranked Belgians.

After facing the Netherlands in a four test series in Perth from January 20-25, the Kookaburras will have a short break and then play Belgium (world number 10) in Canberra from February 5-8.

Ian Burcher will also form part of the Australia men’s national development squad which is due to play a series against India in Queensland in February 2009. West Australians Graeme Begbie, Jonathon Charlesworth, Brent Dancer and Ross Meadows were all included in the squad for the two match series.
