Schopman resigns as women's hockey coach

India's women's hockey team coach Janneke Schopman has resigned from her position just days after hitting out at Hockey India for preferential treatment meted out to the men's national team. Schopman, whose tenure was to end after the Paris Olympics in August this year, sent her resignation letter to Hockey India (HI).

"I would like to inform that I am tendering my resignation as the chief coach of the senior women's team by giving Hockey India and SAI one month notice as per my contract agreement. My last working day will be March 23, 2024," Schopman wrote in her resignation letter.

"My time with the team has been a memorable experience and I will always look back with a sense of gratitude to players and staff especially. I kindly request that all outstanding dues are paid and taken care of before this date, my salary for the months of February and March, the coach education fee as well as the outstanding prize money for last year," she wrote. Schopman arrived here on Thursday and met HI officials.
