Isle of Man hockey star, Sienna Dunn will be part of the England Under-21 squad again in 2026.

The former Valkyrs player is one of 22 players to be part of the setup for this calendar year.

Furthermore, Dunn is also included for 2026 in the 20-strong women's team of the Great Britain Elite Development Programme (EDP).

Since 2021, the Island competitor has been a regular selection across several age classes in the England setup, first starting out in the Under-16 squad five years ago.

From there she's gone on not only to represent but also captain the England Under-16's, England Under-18's and England Under-21's female squads.

During 2025, Dunn - who currently plays club hockey with University of Nottingham - captained the England Under-21's at last year's Women's Junior World Cup in Chile where the team went on to finish eighth in the competition.

Speaking on the squad announcement as a whole, England Under-21 Women's Head Coach, Simon Letchford, says: "Congratulations to all the players selected and my thanks to their coaches and families who support them day in, day out, to help them achieve their hockey aspirations.  

"I am looking forward to working with the squad to both develop them individually towards Senior international level, and prepare as a team for the EuroHockey Junior Championships this summer."
