PETALING JAYA: Shello Silverius does not feel that his stint with the junior hockey team is a step backwards.The 21-year-old, who earlier this year was part of the national team training camp, failed to make it into A. Arulselvaraj’s squad.
For some the rejection will be a massive blow to their morale but the Keningau-born player sees his stint with the juniors as a platform to rectify his weaknesses so that he will be ready for future national call-ups.
