HIL 2024-25: It’s A Proud Moment For Me To Lead The Delhi Team, Says Shamsher Singh
Marang Gomke Jaipal Singh Munda: Indian hockey star Shamsher Singh is excited about the much-anticipated return of the Hockey India League (HIL), set to commence its sixth season on December 28 after a hiatus of seven years.
Shamsher, a vital member of the Indian hockey team that clinched a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics 2024, has been named co-captain of the Delhi SG Pipers alongside Australia’s decorated forward, Jacob Whetton. With the league’s revival, the stakes are high for Indian hockey as it seeks to further strengthen its global presence and nurture talent through an international platform.
Reflecting on his appointment as co-captain, Shamsher said, “It’s a proud moment for me to lead the Delhi SG Pipers. The trust shown in me is significant, and I’m ready to take on this responsibility. I will give my 100% to ensure we bond as a team and perform well.”
