Only goal is to represent country in Olympics, says Dilpreet Singh

Bengaluru, Oct 20 (UNI) Indian Men's Hockey Team Forward Dilpreet Singh believes his only goal at the moment is to get selected for the Olympics and perform for the team on the biggest stage.
Indian Men's Hockey Team Forward Dilpreet Singh, who has been part of a few memorable moments for the national team which includes the silver medal-winning campaign at the Hockey Champions Trophy Breda 2018 and the bronze medal-winning campaign at the Asian Games 2018 in his short career so far, expressed that the current phase is very crucial for the youngsters in the Indian team.
"With the Olympics being postponed to 2021, a huge opportunity has emerged for the youngsters to hone their skills further and make it to the Indian Olympic team. The months leading up to the Olympics is a very crucial phase for the youngsters as opportunities like this don't come everyday. Playing in the Olympics is a dream for any sportsperson and all of us have a great chance of turning our dream into reality in a few months' time," said the 20-year-old.
