British hockey star Crista Cullen has announced plans to come out of retirement ahead of the Rio 2016 Olympics.
The 29-year-old, who retired after winning bronze at London 2012, will join up with the squad at a training camp from October to November.
In a statement via GB Hockey's official website, Cullen said: "I am excited about the opportunity to return to international hockey and to have a chance once more to compete for a place in the Great Britain squad."
Head coach Danny Kerry added: "Following a conversation with Crista in May, she will be returning to the Great Britain squad at our training venue at Bisham Abbey for an extended period of assessment through October and November.
"If successful in that assessment period, Crista will be offered a place within the wider squad of athletes as they continue preparations towards the Rio 2016 Olympic Games."
Cullen has 79 caps and 32 goals to her name for Britain.
