Greg Clark, an Olympian with experience of 250 international matches for the South African Hockey Team has been appointed as the new analytical coach of the Indian men hockey team. According to a release by Hockey India, " Olympian Gregg Clark has been appointed as the new Analytical Coach of the Indian Men's Hockey team until the conclusion of the Tokyo Olympic Games scheduled to be held from 23 July to 8 August 2021. The South African who was formerly associated with the Canadian Men's Hockey Team as Assistant Coach between 2017-2020 is scheduled to join the National Coaching Camp in early January 2021"
Welcoming Clark to the Indian Team, Chief Coach Graham Reid said, "I am looking forward to welcoming Gregg Clark as a new member of our coaching staff. He brings with him a swath of experience including 250 caps for South Africa, 4 Olympic Games (2 as a player and 2 as a Coach), 4 World Cups (2 as player and 2 as Coach), 3 CWG (2 as player and 1 as coach) and countless FIH tournaments. Having been Head Coach of South Africa for 6 years and more recently Assistant Coach with Canada, his contemporary knowledge of our Olympic competitions is first class, Gregg has also worked with a number of our athletes before, meaning he can hit the ground running. He begins in the New Year. He will be an excellent addition to our team."
On his appointment, Clark said, "I am really excited to join the Indian Men's Hockey Team. Having worked with Hockey India earlier, I understand the setup and their professionalism. Most of the players I coached in the Junior Team back in 2013 are now in the Senior group and have come of age as players. It has been very exciting to watch this team grow over the past couple of years. They have a lot of potential to do very well in 2021 and for a number of years in the future."
