Lahore : Pakistan’s under 21 hockey team reached Lahore this morning after a successful tour ofNetherlands and Spain.
In Netherlands, they played three matches against prominent clubs besides appearing in
the BCE International Tournament featuring Netherlands’ EHV H.C., Pakistan Juniors and two German teams.
Pakistani colts won all the six matches in the Netherlands.
Moving to Spain, Pakistan under 21 played a 3 test series against their national junior side.
After losing the first test, Pakistan managed to win the next two to take the series 2-1.
During the European tour, Pakistan juniors scored 41 goals and conceded 14.
Head Coach Tahir Zaman expressed great satisfaction, “We had some good matches in the Netherlands but the real test was in Spain, where we played against their national junior side, also preparing for the junior World Cup to be held later this year.
The boys did well in all the three tests. They worked hard throughout in all the matches and mostly stuck to the game plan. Quite a few times, Pakistan juniors recovered after conceding the lead. Providing quality competition is the most important; no camp training could be a substitute for that”.
