Frankie was overwhelmed with the news: "Representing my country in this prestigious competition is an incredible honour and one of the proudest moments of my angling career."
"To be part of such a talented and dedicated team is a true honour. I’m mega excited for the opportunity to learn from my teammates, grow as an angler, and gain invaluable experience along the way," he added.
He’ll be joining a strong squad with established internationals Will Raison, Steve Hemingray, Matt Godfrey, Cameron Hughes and James Dent. Frankie will be reserve and travel with the team to support them and be ready to step in if required.
