The fresh Selection Trials for Boys Under 18 shall be conducted at SAI Centre Bhopal on 19 & 20 September.

The earlier camp which had to get underway on 05 September was suspended because only 5 of the 55 probables were found to be under 18 years after preliminary medical tests were conducted after trials on 03 and 04 September.

Hockey India has taken a very strong stand on this and has warned the academies and institutions concerned of strict future action against the concerned players, their academies and coaches.

The decision for appropriate action against the erring probables of the suspended camp shall be taken soon.

The academies have been directed to send the eligible probables alongwith their age identification medical test reports done by digital X-Ray units at Radiological Centres. The shortlisted players after the selection trials will again undergo medical examination at Bhopal and if found overage shall face a ban and a fine of Rs. Five Thousand per defaulter shall be slapped on their academy.

These trials are for pruning the probables that shall represent India in the Boys U-18 Asia Cup at Yangon, Myanmar from 14-22 November.
