Harendra Singh has denied any disappointment at being overlooked by Hockey India for the role of senior men’s coach, instead welcoming the chance to work with the women’s team. “No, there’s no question of disappointment,” he said at the SAI here. “If anybody wants to serve the country and he’s a coach he should not look at what the job is. He should volunteer and come forward to serve his country. When this job was offered, I did not hesitate even for a second. I instantly said yes. India is looking for women’s empowerment and I want to start with the hockey team.”
