SCOTT NICHOLLS - GB (Captain) Age: 29.

British career history: Peterborough (1994), Ipswich (1995-98), Poole (1999-2000), Ipswich (2001-04), Coventry (2005-present).

SCOTT has enjoyed huge success with the Buildbase Bees since joining the club in a £36,000 transfer from his hometown team Ipswich.

He took over as captain from Andreas Jonsson in June 2005, has led the team to all of their honours in the last three seasons - two Elite League titles and one Knockout Cup so far! - and is widely regarded as one of the best skippers in the sport.

He has won the British Championship in four of the last six years, and is also the British national captain.

After many years as an established Elite League No.1, the one item missing from Scott's CV is victory in an individual Grand Prix meeting, although he did take second place in a GP for a fourth time in Slovena this year.
