Re: Sandeep to lead at Azlan

VERY GOOD DECISION FOR KEEPING FAITH IN SANDEEP SINGH.
ANOTHER GOOD DECISION IS THAT HOCKEY FEDERATION HAS APPOINTED DHANRAJ PILLAI AS A TECHNICAL MANAGER

Re: Sandeep to lead at Azlan

It is very good to see that a young player is coming forward to lead but we lack in the department of scoring goals against big teams. Selectors must go to the states to encourage hockey at the grass roots. State Associations need to be more pro-active.
