Roelant Oltmans, who formerly served as the coach of the Indian men's hockey team, has resigned from the post of Pakistan hockey head coach. The move came after Pakistan's not-so-impressive performance in the prestigious tournaments like 2018 Commonwealth Games and Hockey Champions Trophy.

Oltmans, in a letter to the Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF), stated that the current circumstances are not so suitable to bring out the best out of the players and that it is not really possible for the PHF to create the required environment for the team to perform well.
