Sardar Singh joins national camp after stint with Dutch club HC Bloemendaal



Indian senior team captain Sardar Singh has joined the men team’s camp at SAI Bhopal after a frutiful stint for famed Dutch club HC Bloemendaal. The star midfielder has been training with the national team for the past three weeks in Bhopal in preparation for the upcoming FIH Hockey World League final round to be held in New Delhi beginning January 10.

The 27-year-old midfielder last played in the 9th Asia Cup in Ipoh, Malaysia where they finished runners-up losing narrowly to Korea before going on to bag their 2014 World Cup berth taking the Oceania quota place.

HC Bloemendaal is a renown outfit in the Netherlands and many top international players like Jamie Dwyer (Australia), Christopher Zeller (Germany) and Floris Jan Bovelander (Holland) have played for them in the past.

One hopes Sardar’s club hockey stint in the Netherlands will do a world of good to Indian team’s performance in the upcoming FIH Hockey World League final round in front of the home crowd.
