ACT duo James Day and Stuart Shepherd will be looking to impress when the Australian under-23 team takes on New Zealand in a five-game series in Canberra starting on Saturday. 
Both teams are in the national capital for training camps until next Friday in preparation for next year's Junior World Cup.
The camp will offer development opportunities for our younger athletes with training sessions and workshops alongside the team's scheduled matches and activities.
The Australian men's under-23 camp will allow all athletes the chance to showcase their talent under the watchful eye of some of Australia's most experienced coaches. 
Australia will attempt to strike first blood in the five-game series when the opening game gets underway at 3pm on Saturday at the National Hockey Centre in Lyneham.
The remaining games will be held on Sunday at 4pm, Tuesday at 3pm, Wednesday at 4pm and Friday at 10am.
