Glasgow : With a well balanced unit at his disposal, Indian women hockey team’s chief coach Neil Hawgood is confident that his young team will deliver their best result at the upcoming Commonwealth Games here.
The Indian eves could not have asked for a better preparation ahead of the Glasgow Games as they routed Malaysia 6-0 in an away Test series recently to gain confidence.
“While the team is young but the kind of play they showed in the recent Malaysian Tour gives me reasons to be proud of them and confidence that we will deliver our best performance here,” Hawgood said ahead of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games to be held from July 23 to August 3.
“The girls are focused on their first match against Canada and we are working on the right team combination keeping the opponents in mind,” he said.
“The practice sessions are helping us to get acclimatised to the weather conditions. The focus today was passes and penalty corner conversions and it was a positive session as the girls looked all glued to their goal ahead,” the Australian added.
