BT Paralympic World Cup 2012: sitting volleyball match cancelled due to lack of partner The team, which will line up against Brazil, Republic of Ireland and the USA, return to the competition at the Manchester Regional Arena on May 23-26, for the first time since 2010. This year's squad features several of the squad that made up the Great Britain side when seven-a-side football debuted at the BT Paralympic back in 2010, and Lynch believes his squad has the ideal mix of experience to take top spot in Manchester. Lynch said: "Our squad is in tremendous shape and I know that everyone involved with the team is really looking forward to the BT Paralympic World Cup. We've got a great mixture of older and younger players, with a whole wealth of experience between them, so it's just the right ingredients for a successful campaign up in Manchester. With the Paralympics just around the corner, the lads will be desperate to put in some top draw performances, performances they can take away with them in to the Games. It's been a long time waiting for this summer to come around, but now it's here, we're all desperate to make the most of it. Chances like this don't come around very often, so it's important we all focus hard and put in the effort now we are at the business end of the campaign. Included in the squad is Matt Dimbylow, one of four survivors from Great Britain's last outing at the BT Paralympic World Cup, alongside Michael Barker, Josh Beacham and Martin Sinclair, whose brother, Scott, plays for Premier League outfit Swansea City. Dimbylow, 41, was part of the side that came seventh at the Beijing Paralympic Games back in 2008, with Jonathan Paterson and Michael Barker the only other survivors from that competition, to take in this week's event. And the Stourport-born defender is adamant his team can set the ball rolling for a summer of great sport, starting with a win over the Samba Boys et al in Manchester, followed by success at the London 2012 Games. Dimbylow said: "The lads are in great spirits and can't wait to get out onto the field at the BT Paralympic World Cup. It's such a great venue, literally in the shadows of Manchester City's ground, and I know everyone will be very up for it. We've got such a strong squad, with some world-class players at our disposal, so I'll be disappointed if we don't go out there and show everyone, including our opposition, what we can do. On our day we can beat anyone in the world and that's the attitude we need to take against some very tough opposition at the BT Paralympic World Cup. If we can win this, we can really push on and take it to London. Excitement has been building for some time within the squad, but we're all very conscious not to get carried away. There's a lot of work to be done and we're determined to make the most of this great honour and fantastic summer of sport, by putting our all in, first in Manchester and then later in London.
