The top four men's teams and the top three in the women's competition will book their places for Beijing.

GB men's coach Murray Treseder has kept faith with 11 of the players who played at the Visa Paralympic World Cup in Manchester in May.

Joe Bestwick earns a recall in place of the retired Sinclair Thomas.

Treseder, who took over from Dave Titmuss in February, will have his first major test at the tournament which takes place from 25 August-2 September.

The men were second at the last European Championships in 2005 but could only finish fifth in last year's World Championships.

They will face the Czech Republic, Bosnia, Spain, France and Sweden in the pool stages with the other pool featuring defending champions Italy, Israel, Poland, the Netherlands, Turkey and the hosts Germany.

The women, who finished fourth in 2005, will take on Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain and Turkey in the round-robin preliminaries.

Men: Joe Bestwick, Dan Highcock, Kevin Hayes, Terry Bywater, Simon Munn, Jon Pollock, Abdi Jama, Matt Byrne, Andy Blake, Pete Finbow, Colin Price, Ade Orogbemi.

Women: Caroline MacLean, Joanne Harper, Clare Strange, Jill Fox, Ann Wild, Debee Steel, Sally Wager, Helen Freeman, Helen Turner, Louise Sugden, Paula Johnson, Caroline Matthews.
