Coorparoo's Kirstin Johnson makes Hockeyroos debut in Africa DEBUT: Kirstin Johnson will compete for the Australian Hockeyroos at the Investec Challenge in South Africa. GRAND PLAN: Adam Commens coaching the Hockeyroos. Coorparoo's Kirstin Johnson will earn her first Test cap for the Australian Hockeyroos when the team competes at the Investec Challenge tournament in South Africa starting this week. Johnson won a gold medal with the Hockeyroos at the International Super Series in Perth in November, but the nine-a-side games weren't regarded as full international matches. But she will line up for the Hockeyroos proper in the Investec Challenge starting on February 4 and features Australia, South Africa, Holland and England. Her selection comes after coach Adam Commens went for a youth policy as the womens' team that finished fifth in London looks to rebuild for the 2016 Olympics in Brazil. It will be a stern test for the youth brigade, lining up against some of the world's best. It's going to be a real challenge for our group. Our opponents are really good sides and we're always looking to find matches against the world's best to continually challenge the group," Commens said. Johnson will make her debut alongside Victorian Danielle Schubach. "We've selected these two girls off the back of very strong Australian Hockey League performances last year and both players played an excellent International Super Series Hockey 9s tournament in Perth," he said. Australia played Holland on Monday and will play South Africa on Tuesday and England on Thursday. Finals will be held on Saturday and Sunday.
