U19s 4 nation tournament preview
From the 11th - 16th August 2014 the Switzerland U19s national team will travel to Paris to compete in a four nation competition against France, Belgium & Germany.
Switzerland finished 4th in the 4 nation U19s tournament last year in Karlsruhe, Germany, albeit with a young side. And with the age criteria having been tightened for this year and the Swiss squad with twelve months more experience, the Swiss rate their chances of improving on 2013.
