Researching Grant Schubert

Schubert now lives in Western Australia.

Schubert was honoured as the most promising player at the 2003 Champions Trophy with nine goals in six matches. Earlier that year, on 9 July, he made his debut for The Kookaburras in a friendly match against Germany in Neuss. He played club hockey in The Netherlands after the Athens Games, first for Kampong in Utrecht, and after the relegation for HC Klein Zwitserland in The Hague. He had to miss the 2006 Men's Hockey World Cup due to a knee injury. He also missed the 2008 Olympic Games semi-final and bronze medal play-off matches due to a knee injury sustained in the last minor round game vs Great Britain.

In 2006, Schubert represented Australia at the Azlan Shah tournament in Malaysia. He competed in the 2007 Champions Trophy competition for Australia. In January 2008, he was a member of the senior national team that competed at the Five Nations men's hockey tournament in South Africa. He represented Australia at the 2008 Summer Olympics, playing in the team's 6-1 victory over Canada and scoring the team's third goal.

New national team coach Ric Charlesworth named him, a returning member, alongside fourteen total new players who had few than 10 national team caps to the squad before in April 2009 in a bid to ready the team for the 2010 Commonwealth Games. In 2009, Schubert was a member of the national team during a five-game test series in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia against Malaysia. He was a member of the 2009 Champions Trophy winning team, playing in the gold medal match against Germany that Australia won by a score of 5-3. In 2011, he had an Achilles tendon injury, which led to him to being removed from the Kookaburras squad for a while. In December 2011, he was named as one of fourteen players to be on the 2012 Summer Olympics Australian men's national Olympic development squad. While this squad is not in the top twenty-eight and separate from the Olympic training coach, the Australian coach Ric Charlesworth did not rule out selecting from only the training squad, with players from the Olympic development having a chance at possibly being called up to represent Australia at the Olympics. He trained with the team from 18 January to mid-March in Perth, Western Australia.
