Much-needed exposure for hockey team in two meets


PETALING JAYA: The Birmingham Commonwealth Games and the postponed Hangzhou Asian Games could have been the ideal preparation for the Speedy Tigers’ World Cup mission next year but the Malaysian Hockey Confederation (MHC) are not complaining.

Instead the Tigers will look towards the Nations Cup in Potchefstroom, South Africa, from Nov 28-Dec 4 as part of their build-up for the world meet that starts from Jan 13-29.
