KINGSTON, Jamaica – With just over one month to go until the start of the 2023 Hockey5s Pan American Cups (PAC), to be held at the Mona Hockey Field in Kingston, Jamaica, U.S. Men’s National Team Head Coach Harry Singh has named the 10-athlete roster.
“As the first step on our Hockey5’s adventure, it was pleasing to see all players willing to try and adapt their approaches to this new and exciting format of world hockey introduced by FIH,” commented Head Coach Harry Singh. “This game will provide players flexibility which is going to be critical in the determination of our success for the upcoming PAHF World Cup qualifiers in Jamaica this June.”
“All of the athletes picked up the new format as per players' ability and adaptation of the new format, making selections incredibly hard. I am excited by the team list we have named.”
The athletes selected to participate in this 2024 Hockey5s World Cup qualifier were selected following a camp held at the Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center in March.
