Competing as Great Britain
Scotland do not compete at the Olympic Games , but Scottish players are eligible to play for Great Britain as selected. Great Britain instead of the four individual home nations (including Scotland) also compete at certain editions of both the FIH Hockey World League , usually when the tournament serves as an Olympic Games qualifier (most recently in 2014–15 ), and the FIH Hockey Champions Trophy , when held during Olympic years (most recently in 2016 ).
At the 1992 Olympic Games , Scottish field hockey players, Susan Fraser , Wendy Fraser and Alison Ramsay won bronze medals, as part of the Great Britain team in the women's tournament .[ 4] Laura Bartlett and Emily Maguire repeated the feat at the 2012 Olympic Games .[ 5] [ 6] 2012 FIH Hockey Champions Trophy (as did Bartlett), and a gold medal for winning the 2014–15 FIH Hockey World League Semi-finals .[ 5] [ 6]
