Hockey India Balbir Singh Sr: Former Indian women’s team captain and seasoned goalkeeper Savita, who was honoured with the Player of the Year (Women) and the Goalkeeper of the Year honour at the Hockey India Annual Awards, she sees these awards as recognition of the people in her life who have made this possible.
Speaking on winning the Hockey India Balbir Singh Sr. Award for Player of the Year for the third time, Savita said, “It feels very good. There have been so many strong performances this year, I was not expecting to win. All athletes like to be recognised for their efforts, and I am grateful for the award.”
While receiving the honour, Savita credited her team for their support. “Within the team, we all support each other and root for each other’s success. None of us can achieve anything without the support of the team, so without them, this would not be possible.”
