Contents

Team Scotland played two warm-up matches for the World Cup, beating both a "rest of Scotland" team, and the "Northern All-Stars", consisting of skaters from the north of England. [1]

At the World Cup, Scotland lost narrowly to New Zealand, 124 to 111, [2] and overwhelmingly to Team USA, 435 to 1. [3] Although this led to the becoming the lowest-ranked team in the consolation stage, they beat Team Argentina and later beat Team Brazil, to finish eleventh out of thirteen teams. [4]
