McMillan in Olympic handball squad

Daniel McMillan
HAMPSHIRE'S Daniel McMillan has been selected for Great Britain's Olympic handball squad.
The 29-year-old, from Sway, is one of 14 players included in the team for London 2012.
Head coach Dragan Djukic said: "It was the hardest decision in my life, because our players have invested the last six years of their lives in the GB programme, but the situation that we have a chance up to the quarter-final to change injured players, with any player from the long list, gave us the chance to reward the 15 players (including the one reserve) who invested the most over this period.
"In the end, the best 15 are selected and now it is time for concentration and to add the final touches for the start of the Olympic Tournament and the opening game against World and Olympic Champions France."
