Sam Ward: Sam Ward became one of England centrally-contracted players in September 2014 and wasted no time in scoring twice on his senior international debut against the world champions Australia three months later, according to The Guardian. Another three goals have followed and it has been a remarkable introduction to life at the highest level for a player whose route there took in none of the pathways and university streams common for national squad members. England male and female hockey players will compete at the Euro Hockey Championships at the Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre over the next 10 days and the men team can call on an outstanding forward whose career has taken a step that barely seemed imaginable half a decade ago. I worked in a Volkswagen car dealership in Loughborough, Ward says. You put all your working time into that and it was very hard to train as much as you could to reach the top level. I started there when I was about 17 and a half, doing a bit of selling and working in their fleet department.
