Hockey India named a 39-member group on Tuesday (November 28) that'll be part of the Men's National Coaching Camp.
The coaching camp will commence on November 29 at SAI Bengaluru and will serve as a preparatory camp ahead of the upcoming tournament.
The Indian Men's Hockey Team's next competitive tournament will be the 5 National Tournament against hosts Spain, Germany, France and Belgium. The event is scheduled to commence on Friday (December 15) and will take place in Valencia.
Talking about the upcoming camp and the National Championship in Chennai, Indian Men’s Hockey Team Chief Coach Craig Fulton was quoted as saying in a press release:
“It was a long break from the National Camp after a successful outing in the Hangzhou Asian Games. Most of the players from the team played the National Championship in Chennai, and I too got a chance to watch some of the young and upcoming players closely. We will now assemble in SAI, Bengaluru with a fresh perspective to our preparations for the Paris Olympics.”
Fulton added:
“As I have maintained, it is a process and we will revisit our Asian Games campaign and understand how we can do better as a team and work towards that."
