Central Coast-born hockey star Tori Adamson is among a group of 11 NSW athletes selected in the 2025/26 Australian Under-18 Squad, known as The Futures Squad.
The teenager, who was recently part of the gold medal-winning NSW team from the Australian Under-18 Women’s Championships, has added to her list of national recognitions.
In total, six women and five men were selected from NSW in the squads.
The Futures Squad is selected at the conclusion of the Australian Under-18 Championships and represents the next generation of potential Kookaburras and Hockeyroos, the Australian national teams.
Selected athletes will be part of a year-long program under the tutelage of Hockey Australia Performance Pathways Leads Mark Knowles, former Kookaburras Captain and Olympian, and Hugh Purvis, former international coach with Canada Men and international assistant coach with the Hockeyroos.
The program is designed to elevate them to the next stage of their development and provide a pathway into the U21, Development, and Senior National Squads.
Hockey Australia announced the athletes selected in the squads on July 25.
