Teenage Fareham hockey hot shot Charlie Cook has been picked for play for England Under-18s in Germany next year – even though he’ll be two years younger than most of his peer group.

Squad selection for the 15-year-old comes on the back of some eye-catching performances for the England U16s, initially against Ulster last summer and, more recently, in international tournaments in Holland and Germany.

Cook, who has already made his mark in Fareham’s Western Conference side this autumn, celebrated his 15th birthday with a goal against Ulster and bagged another five on European soil, scoring twice in the 4-4 draw with Spain, a brace against Scotland and another goal in the 6-2 win over Austria in Frankfurt.
