SG Pipers Head Coach Sofie: SG Pipers Head Coach Sofie Gierts has expressed her admiration for the quality and fearlessness of the young Indian players in her squad, describing their natural ability and mindset as a major positive in the team’s early preparations ahead of the Hockey India League 2025–26, scheduled from December 28, 2025, to January 10, 2026.

Reflecting on the first few days of training, Sofie highlighted the confidence and instinctive play of rising talents such as Ishika and Sunelita Toppo, noting how quickly they have stood out with their expressive style on the field.

Sofie said the players “play without fear. The technique is there, the instincts are there, and most importantly, they are not afraid to try things. That is something very special.”
