BSA Hockey Stars> Date: Sat, 7 Jun 2008
The BSA young lads played an exciting soccer match against a Darjeeling team. Alana's coaching and daily runs have kept them fit. Now she has a new challenge - to make the boys the future Indian Olympic Hockey Team!
Playing with twigs and branches, and using a wild fig as a ball, they showed how adept they are to the game. Now with proper hockey sticks we have the makings of a future Dhyan Chand or C.S. Gurung (Olympic Gold Medalists)
