Chief Coach Jose Brasa told that in near future i.e. 2012, the present hockey team of Indian has got the capability to achieve some great results. As in London Olympics 2012, this could only happen with the upgrading training system, as training is the backbone of achievements in Olympics.

Looking 80 years back record, in 2008, Beijing Olympics, this is for the very first time, India missed medals in hockey. Indian hockey team is capable of winning a sure-shot medal in Olympics. But qualified trained professionals are needed to train them to do so.

Upgraded training facilities should be given to the team, which includes enough support staff, modern equipments to play, proper scheduled programme & sports psychologists too. Before going to Spain, as Coach Jose Brasa’s contract expires on Tuesday, he told that upgraded training for Indian Hockey Team is not available at present.

Brasa expressed that if Indian hockey team maintains the same kind of form, then they can win against any team, i.e. the way they played hockey in Delhi Common Wealth Games & then later on in Guangzhou Asian Games. Indian Hockey Team won over Pakistan team & England.

It’s a strong gut feeling that same team players can win over qualifiers. So it’s clear that team cannot just win over qualifiers, it can also win & grab medals too, if proper training is given to them in 2 coming years, before 2012 Olympics.

Brasa’s recommendations to national coach Harendra Singh is to pull out his resignation & remain with the team. After Asian Games in Malaysia, when India didn’t yield much, Harendra resigned.

Harendra must give re-thought to his decision & rejoin the team. Harendra’s attitude is perfectly right & he awesomely understands the team. Brasa happily expressed that he had some cherishing memories with Indian Hockey team, as on ground team members would shout in Indian language, words like ‘piche hatoo’, ‘udharr bandaa bheejo’.

Moreover from that, Brasa found Indian crowd to be the best he have seen in his lifetime. He told that he had never seen such kind of support from the crowd even in Olympics. It’s a strong gut feeling that same team players can win over qualifiers. So it’s clear that team cannot just win over qualifiers, it can also win & grab medals too, if proper training is given to them in 2 coming years, before 2012 Olympics.
