Govers, who was a part of the Australian team that won the Men’s World Cup in 2010 and 2014, arrived in Bengaluru on Monday for a eight-day

special camp for strikers at the Sports Authority of India here.“I am truly excited to return to India. I have some really fond memories of playing in this hockey-crazy country,” said Govers.“I have been following the Indian team’s progress very closely and I believe they have great potential. In the next few days I will be working with the forwards to see how we can improve their efficiency inside the circle and when the opponents’ marking is tight how can we convert.“We will also be doing some video analysis from the recent Sultan Azlan Shah Cup to dissect where the strikers could have done better.

The whole idea is to help improve the conversion rate,” said the 31-year-old NSW star striker.The players who will be working closely with Govers during the national camp include Akashdeep Singh, Ramandeep Singh, S.V. Sunil, Lalit

Kumar Upadhyay, Simranjeet Singh, Gurjant Singh, Mandeep Singh, Sumit Kumar, Shamsher Singh, Armaan Qureshi, Abharan Sudev Belimagga, Mohd Raheel Mouseen, Harsahib Singh, Dilpreet Singh, Gursahibjit Singh, Shilanand Lakra and Atif Ateeq.

India’s ace striker Sunil said, “His experience will immensely help our forwards. He was one of the best strikers for Australia and he is extremely good in pressing, goal scoring and positioning inside the circle.
