Junior and sub-junior teams triumph at Bhubaneswar
Criticising government agencies for shortcomings is common; appreciating them not so much. With their recent victories in the Hockey India Academy National championships, the Sports Authority of India’s hockey programme has reason to be proud. The SAI-Academy girls’ teams won the inaugural editions of the sub-junior and junior competitions in Bhubaneswar last week, on consecutive days. While the junior girls won 2-1 against a strong MP Academy side in the final, the sub-junior team registered a hard-fought 5-4 win against home team Odisha Naval Tata Hockey HPC in shootouts at the Kalinga Stadium.
