Graham Reid, India Men's Hockey Team Coach, Resigns From His Post Following Ninth Place Finish in the Men's Hockey World Cup 2023
Graham Reid introduced India to a high-intensity style of hockey played by Australia. His coaching helped them get success in Tokyo but following India's early exit in the Men's Hockey World Cup at home, he decided to resign from his post.
India had a disappointing campaign in the Men's Hockey World Cup 2023 at home, as they were beaten by New Zealand in the crossover round and failed to progress further. Although they won the two matches in the classification round, it was never going to be enough. Following the poor campaign, coach Graham Reid has taken the responsibility and decided to step down from his position of coach. It is a big blow considering Graham played a key role in India's win of bronze medal in Tokyo Olympics and he had a vision going forward. Now things have to reboot once again.
