JHB hockey on top form

Every conversation between hockey mates pretty much ends up or starts off about the upcoming World Champs and the 1st training camp next weekend.

There is something about being able to put on your countries colours and skate out on home ice, infront of hundreds or thousands of fans... What an honour and trust me when I say that goose-bumps are raiding my body as these thoughts go through my head, and I am sure the same with many of the others that are passionate about this sport.

Speaking about passion, word on the street (facebook street) is that the guys up in Jhb are training just as hard and are looking really good with great things to say about each other and the effort that everyone is putting into their personal preperation.

Apart from one or two (not going to mention names) that are not really pulling their weight, the majority of the Jhb squad once added to the Cape Town squad is going to be, possibly the fittest and most well-prepared team for the last couple years.

Team SA will be starting their tournament against the favorites Israel but will definitely not give them a chance to get their legs moving. The goal will be to dominate the tournament and use this as preparation for advancement to Division II next year.

More to come...
