The book is a brief sketch of some of the hockey stalwarts from the State who have represented Tamil Nadu and India.

Muthaiah was all praise for Arumugam for his endeavour. “Chennai hockey is about one hundred years old and this boo will help the hockey lovers gather informatin about their favourite players”, Muthaish said.
