"Unfortunately, we've had a few come into the camp a little bit late, but the level has been extremely high and the players look very very focused moving forward for the Olympics.
Speaking on what he hopes to achieve with the friendly against Canada, Waldrum stated that the coaching crew wants to test out what they have worked on in training and see more from certain players.
