Salima Tete, Lalremsiami and Sharmila who were part of the Olympic squad will join the Junior Indian Women’s Team’s ongoing National Coaching Camp at the same campus in SAI, Bengaluru. Bichu Devi Kharibam who was featured in the Olympic Core group will also join the Junior national camp.

“While the campaign in Tokyo ended on a disappointing note for the players as it was a case of so near yet so far from the medal, the love and support the players have received over these past few weeks has been incredible and this has motivated them to do better,” Hockey India President Gyanendro Ningombam said.
