The Coal India hockey League was scheduled to be played from 21st Jan, 2017 to 26th Feb, 2017. The Hockey Matches under this Hockey India league were played in following cities:
These Type of Tournaments helps in building the confidence of young players as they were given opportunity to play their game with the world greats of hockey and they can also learn many good things from them and also it will help them to be good players and ultimately will help a country to do good on hockey front and will make them proud and also will ultimately help the world hockey as it will be bring more energy, freshness and new emerging players to the world and also it will help players to take care and play well in Alien conditions as well. For Example if Netherlands or Australian Hockey Team visits India to play hockey match or series they were not able to get used to the temperature, weather and even the stadium atmosphere, with the help of these type of hockey leagues players get good idea of how to cope with different types of environment prevailing in the world at large and make hockey a more better game. Also I would like to explain Hockey is a game which is a game of very short duration of total 70 minutes in which both halves are of 35 Minutes each but Hockey India league has turned it into 4 quarters of 17.50 Minutes each.
