Hockey India announces core group for Sr Men's National Coaching Camp
Bengaluru, July 10 (UNI) Hockey India today named a 33-member core probable group for the Senior Men's National Coaching Camp, which will take place at the Sports Authority of India (SAI) Centre in Bengaluru from July 14 to August 7. The upcoming camp is a crucial preparatory phase for the Indian team as they gear up for two major international assignments- the Australia tour and the all-important Hero Asia Cup at Rajgir, Bihar 2025, scheduled to take place from August 29 to September 7. The winner of the Asia Cup will earn direct qualification for the FIH Hockey Men's World Cup 2026. Despite a disappointing FIH Hockey Pro League 2024/25 campaign in Europe, where India secured just one win from eight matches and finished eighth in the league, the coaching staff remains focused on rebuilding momentum and addressing key areas ahead of the upcoming tournaments. The goalkeeping unit remains unchanged with Krishan B Pathak, Suraj Karkera, Pawan, and Mohith Honnenahalli Shashikumar continuing their roles between the posts. India's defensive line will be marshalled by Sumit, Amit Rohidas, Jugraj Singh, Nilam Sanjeep Xess, Amandeep Lakra, Harmanpreet Singh, Jarmanpreet Singh, Sanjay, and Yashdeep Siwach.

Speaking ahead of the camp, Indian Men's Hockey Team Chief Coach Craig Fulton said, 'Reflecting on our Pro League matches in Europe, we felt the squad competed well in every game, but we didn't finish strong- something we had done effectively in Bhubaneswar. That's an area we know we need to improve.' 'Our objectives for this next training camp are clear- to keep building on our 'defend to counter to win' approach. There's still work to be done, but it's an exciting time as we prepare for the Asia Cup in Bihar. Winning that tournament would mean direct qualification for the World Cup, and that's a big motivation for all of us,' he added. 33-member list for the Senior Men's Camp Goalkeepers: Krishan B Pathak, Suraj Karkera, Pawan, Mohith H S Defenders: Sumit, Amit Rohidas, Jugraj Singh, Nilam Sanjeep Xess, Harmanpreet Singh, Jarmanpreet Singh, Sanjay, Yashdeep Siwach, Amandeep Lakra Midfielders: Raj Kumar Pal, Nilakanta Sharma, Hardik Singh, Rajinder Singh, Manpreet Singh, Vivek Sagar Prasad Shamsher Singh, Moirangthem Rabichandra Singh, Poovanna CB, Vishnukant Singh Forwards: Gurjant Singh, Abhishek, Shilanand Lakra, Mandeep Singh, Dilpreet Singh, Sukhjeet Singh, Aditya Arjun Lagage, Selvam Karthi, Uttam Singh, Angad Bir Singh UNI RKM

Speaking on the role of junior and new players in this camp, Fulton said, "There is definitely a focus on identifying and developing younger talent. This camp gives us a closer look at some promising junior and new players. At the same time, we are also focusing on reinforcing structure and consistency among our senior group.
