Two Wheels Rising

Hockey is a sport that has a strong foundation and roots in Malaysia, with the Speedy Tigers remaining relatively competitive on the global stage. And yet, despite the sport still being played at the grassroots level in schools, hockey might be facing problems that threaten its future existence in the country. A lack of high-quality next-generation players succeeding our current aging star players is among the challenges we're currently facing. We speak to Aftar Singh, sports journalist from the New Straits Times, to learn more about hockey in Malaysia and where we are at the moment.
