While the competition is good, I wish there was more coverage and live streaming of these junior matches. These kids are our future Olympians! Hockey India should make it easier for fans to follow these tournaments online.

Punjab hockey strong as always! But kudos to all academies involved. Seeing names from different states – Gujarat, Punjab, even academies like Namdhari – is what makes our national sport truly national. Best of luck for the junior finals tomorrow!

These tournaments are so important for scouting talent. I hope the selectors are watching closely. Players like Ali Razzaq and Sanmukh Singh who score in finals under pressure are the ones we need for the senior team in the future.
