Four NSWIS men’s hockey players have been selected on the Australian team to compete at the 2012 Champions Trophy.

Olympic bronze medallist Kieran Govers and Simon Orchard will be joined by fellow NSWIS athletes Joshua White and Tristan Miller in the first major international tournament since the London Games.

The Australian team will line up against the world’s best in Melbourne, including Olympic gold and silver medallists Germany and the Netherlands, and trans-Tasman rivals New Zealand.

The Champions Trophy will be played from December 1-9 in Melbourne.
