The matches will be the first internationals the Kookaburras have played since they won Silver at last year’s Tokyo Olympics.
The opening match of the series is on Thursday 21 April with the final match on 28 April.
With the Kookaburras starved of international matches due to COVID, this series is crucial as the team prepares to defend its Commonwealth Games gold medal in Birmingham in July.
The Series will be the Kookaburras’ only international matches on home soil before the Commonwealth Games.
The first match of the series will be free on LIVEHockey with the subsequent four matches requiring a subscription.
