MEN
Wales finished off the last post, so they can start this one. Tomorrow's opening game is against Norway in Group A at 07.00, with their second one on Sunday at 11.00 against Canada. Two tough ones to start with for Wales, but the other games should be winnable, certainly easier.
Also playing at the same time tomorrow are Scotland, who take on New Zealand, and Ireland, who play Germany, both in Group B. On Sunday the Scots play Germany at 15.00, while the Irish take on Poland in the same session.
In Group C England play Switzerland at 19.00 tomorrow, then Latvia on Sunday, also at 19.00.
The top two from each of four Groups advance to the Quarter-finals on Friday afternoon.
I'm thinking these will be played off between Canada, Norway, Ireland, Scotland, Switzerland, United States, Czechia and Sweden, with Wales and England having a decent outside chance.
WOMEN
England and Scotland are both in Group C, with the Sassenachs playing United States tomorrow at 11.00 and then New Zealand at 07.00. The Scots play Denmark at 11.00 tomorrow, followed by United States at 07.00 on Sunday.
Ireland are in Group B, playing against Latvia at 15.00 tomorrow and Hong Kong at 15.00 on Sunday.
The Quarter-finals are being played on Thursday night. There's nothing shown on the website, but I'm presuming that the top two from each of the three Groups will qualify, along with the two best 3rd placed teams making 8. See where a state education can get you - no universities required.
My tips for the Quarter-finals would be Canada, Japan, Switzerland, Sweden, Scotland and United States, with Ireland and England sneaking in at the death.
