'I am not retiring' - Rani Rampal quashes retirement rumours; accepts proposal of coaching U17 teams

India TV News  

Former India women's hockey team captain Rani Rampal has furiously hit back at chief coach Janneke Schopman regarding her sudden ouster from the team and also quashed her retirement rumours floating in the air as she took over a new responsibility on Thursday, August 10. Hockey India assigned a new set of responsibilities to former India captains Sardar Singh and Rani as they were named coaches of the soon-to-be-formed U17 teams - a sub-junior team in a brand new age category. The best person who can answer this is the chief coach or the selectors because I don’t know the answer," said Rani in a press conference. The incumbent Hockey India president Dilip Tirkey, who was also present at the press conference said that the president and the secretary "do not interfere" in selection calls and mentioned that such calls are entirely taken by the selectors and the coach.
