Three Mariners have been selected to head into camp with the Olyroos this week as the Australian U-23 side get set for friendlies against Sydney FC and Macarthur.
Defender Kye Rowles, goalkeeper Adam Pearce and attacker Daniel Bouman have all being called into camp, with Danny DeSilva on standby for the group as well.
The three Mariners headed to Sydney on Sunday to begin work with Graham Arnold and his staff as the Olyroos begin to look ahead towards the Tokyo Olympics in 2021.

Mariners Head Coach Alen Stajcic congratulated the three and welcomed the opportunity they are receiving.
“This will be a great experience this week and it’s a good reflection of the Club for us to have a number of players attending,” he said.
“With the Olympics getting closer this is a really strong opportunity for the boys to put their name in the hat and push for selection.”

After a frustrating year of camp, match and tournament postponements due to the national and international effects of COVID-19, Arnold said he is looking forward to assembling an Australia U-23 selection as the road to the rescheduled Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games continues.
“It is great that we will be assembling a representative squad in the November FIFA window,” Arnold said.
“The window will enable our coaches and staff to reconnect with some of Australia’s best under 23 players, and revisit some of the work that we did in January this year when we secured qualification for Tokyo in Thailand.”
