HIL will be an adventure I remember for life, says Odisha Warriors’ Yibbi Jansen
The HinduAlong with Harmanpreet Singh for the male honours, the Netherlands midfielder Yibbi Jansen was named the female Player of the Year at the FIH Star Awards last week. The 24-year-old was recently acquired by the Odisha Warriors in the auction of the inaugural Women’s Hockey India League for an impressive 29 lakhs, making her the second-costliest player in the league. It’s the first time the Hockey India League is being held for women and I’m very pleased to play for the Odisha Warriors. Hopefully, lots of crowds will come to the stadium and it will be an adventure which I will remember for life.” The Odisha Warriors’ roster also includes international stars like Freeke Moes from the Netherlands, Claire Colwill, Jocelyn Bartram, and Kaitlin Nobbs from Australia.
