World cup is in August and now it is only January… getting exposure in an International tournament is a boon… First of all there are not much of International tournaments available for Junior women…and to miss this opportunity would be a big loss… and mind you that you are getting an opportunity to play against team like Australia which is one of the best team in the World. After all the Junior Asia you have played against low level teams other than Korea, China and Japan.. Rest of the teams were like Malaysia, Taiwan, Pakistan, Hongkong and Singapore did not have any standard. Even school teams from India could beat them…. The coach is afraid that he is going to play against tougher teams now and may be he wants to cherish with Bronze medal victory whihc he had in Junior Asia cup for some more time.. Why are these old coaches made to be still the national coach? They have already retired and cant take up an more strain and stress of competition..Must pack them off..
IWHF i think earlier Artical in ‘News Paper’s’their is no cordination between Coaches ,officials and,Govt observer,and it seems very clear Chief coach of senior and junior totally no cordination because junior coach is madam Bose goody and Senior is trying to pick up women hockey at the winning podium but i think became very difficult and very strange without given trials the girl’s were selected said Rupa Saini i think we have to stop all the camps why to waist such a big Govt money we can pick and chose there previous performance.
Earlier it was very disipline camps when i was there those girls not attended camps report in one day they should be back now lot of indisipline and the time has to come forward and stop ‘Amrit Bose ‘old shop of women hockey i think with coaches she also became older and cant think positive appraoch where is ‘Technical Adviser ‘ gone.Is he was not there and also every body know ‘Govt observer ‘is also very old madam spoon .I think to save hockey women we have closed old shop running at home and new women senior player body will take charge than we will get good result.
