รขโฌลOur High Performance Committee put forward the approach of a menรขโฌโขs and womenรขโฌโขs team coach to see the team through to this yearรขโฌโขs World Championships, and in Michael Bohl and Rohan Taylor we have two very experienced coaches,รขโฌย said Nettlefold.
รขโฌลBoth men will complement Michael Scottรขโฌโขs skills in the area of high performance and Iรขโฌโขve said all along that our job is to enable athletes and coaches to perform at their best, and thatรขโฌโขs what this coaching unit is designed to do.รขโฌย
