Hockey India prepares detailed competition plan for Tokyo-bound teams
The HinduHockey India on Wednesday said it has drawn up a list of competitions both for the senior men and women’s teams in the run-up to next year’s Tokyo Olympics. “The national camps and international exposures for the senior men and senior women teams have been scheduled according to FIH calendar and will be submitted in the ACTC for 2020/21 once FIH and AHF finalise their dates.” Hockey India said it has prepared an SOP to be followed at the state and national level events after the pandemic subsides. “As a first step towards resuming activities depending on permissions provided by Government of India and state governments, HI has issued a 20-page dossier to it’s member units which provides a minimum standard that needs to be followed when hockey activities resume in their respective states,” the HI said. Maharashtra will host the 2021 Senior Men National Championship while Uttar Pradesh Hockey will organise the corresponding women’s event.
