i dont blame ICL or IPL..in fact we must congratulate BCCI to garner the oppurtunity and generate the kind of funds they are doing. IHF should learn from BCCI how to generate interest and funds for hockey..what they really need is young brigade in office who can do marketing and publicity for the game.AND I THINK PRIVATISING INDIAN HOCKEY FEDERATION IS THE ONLY OPTION OUT..give it to vijay mallya or SRK..because i know they will keep no stone unturned to give the hockey team the best of the facility. ARE U ALL AWARE , THAT THE EQUIPMENTS THAT THE CHAK DE GIRLS USED IN THE MOVIE..THE INDIAN HOCKEY TEAM CAN ONLY DREAM OF HAVING IT...MUST ADVISE U ALL BE A PART OF THE SOLUTION NOT THE PROBLEM

Be specific. Not BCCI, but Daddy Cool Jagmohan Dalmiya was responsible for filling the coffers of BCCI and funds always help in creating an atmosphere where professionalism and politics both grow quickly. First make the sport a viable option for sportsmen to work hard for. Second, make sports a part of school curriculum. I remember that sportsmen in our time had to balance academics with sports in which sports is always rated a poor second. So only those who were acceptable as academic failures would work hard in a sport. And if people work hard in sport after becoming 18 then they will proficient only when they reach 28 to 30. So change policy or change your expectations of success INDIA. You are a great country but with sportsmen whose pride is reduced to the level of beggars held in contempt by chanchas of whimsical politicians!
