FIH chief backs Hockey India in the national game's ongoing power struggle
In a damning blow to the hopes of the Indian Hockey Federation (IHF) of wresting back control over hockey in the country, President of the International Hockey Federation (FIH) Leandro Negre told MiD DAY yesterday that the IHF is history and Hockey India (HI) is the way ahead for the game in the country.
“We have given the IHF plenty of opportunities so far (to join hands with HI). They have to be smarter and understand that they are the past while Hockey India (HI) is the future of hockey in India.
