    FIH Hockey Pro League: Sundergarh, the hockey hotbed in Odisha, has produced another fabulous player named Sunelita Toppo. The 16-year-old made her debut for the Indian women’s team on February 3 against China in the FIH Hockey Pro League 2023/24.

    Sunelita was drawn to the sport after watching the women from her village play hockey at a festival. She first started playing with bamboo sticks, but it wasn’t long before she made her mark in the 2022 National Games in Gujarat.

    Following this, she was selected for the junior team. As the team claimed its maiden title in the junior Asia Cup in 2023, Sunelita was called up to train with the senior team.
