Great Britain's hopes of reaching the Final Four of the inaugural women's league suffered a setback when they lost twice to Turkey at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield.

Audrey Cooper's team are still seeking their first win in the competition after losing 3-1 and 3-0 and now move on to face Romania away in another double-header this weekend before the third leg in Edinburgh on June 13-14.

With Scots Mark McGivern and Chris Lamont both playing their part, GB came back after losing in straight sets on Saturday to take Australia, ranked ninth in the world, to five sets before losing out 21-25 25-17 25-23 16-25 12-15.
