“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.”

Having Govers in Bengaluru ahead of the Indian team’s important campaign at the FIH Men’s Series Finals Bhubaneswar Odisha 2019, ace striker SV Sunil said, “His (Kieran Govers) 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.

On inviting an experienced striker like Govers to work with the Indian forwards, David John, Hockey India’s High Performance Director said, “It is good for our strikers to use the experience of Kieran Govers. He has played against most of the Indian players and understands their short-comings well.”
“Our players relate to him and since he is still their contemporary, I am sure the sessions will be more interactive, exciting and fast-paced. Govers was part of the Australian leadership group and I believe his stint with the team will help in our preparations of the FIH Men’s Series Finals Bhubaneswar Odisha 2019.”
