After the selection trials, the short-listed players will again undergo medical examination in Bhopal and if found overage shall face a ban.

Besides, a fine of Rs. 5000 per defaulter will be slapped on the academy the players belong to.

The trials will be held to select the Indian team for the under-18 Asia Cup at Yangon, Myanmar, to be held from November 14-22.

The earlier camp was suspended as 50 of the 55 probables were found to be overage after a medical test.

Hockey India has warned the academies and institutions which had sent the overage players. It will also take action against the overage probables. — Sports Reporter
