Thompson proud of young GB squad
Great Britain coach Paul Thompson has praised his young squad despite missing out on a medal at the recent World Championships in Austria.
Thompson told BBC Coventry & Warwickshire: "We gave what we had and as a coach that's all you can ask for.
"Our younger guys will be more experienced for it and I'm very proud of the way they adapted themselves over the last couple of weeks."
Had Team GB won their final match they would have picked up the silver medal.
