In the 12th episode of FIH Hockey Pod, hosts Sarah Juggins and Richard Stainthorpe are joined by two stars of the Spanish team, goalkeeper Maria Ruiz and rising star Laura Barrios; Ali Campbell of Team USA; and Elvis Bwalya and Floyd Chomba of the Zambia Hockey Association.
Listeners will hear about Maria and Laura's experiences at the Olympic Games Toko 2020, their hopes for the forthcoming FIH Hockey Pro League season as well as Laura's hopes and dreams for the FIH Hockey Women's Junior World Cup.
Ali Campbell will be attending her second FIH Indoor Hockey World Cup in February 2022 and she explains just how important indoor hockey has been to her own personal development as a team member for both the outdoor and indoor versions of the game.
The work of Elvis and Floyd to develop Hockey ID in Zambia has been a shining example of how an inclusive approach to coaching allows both participants and coaches to learn new skills and personal qualities.
As always, there is a round up of the news and the whole conversation is a lively look at hockey across the globe.
