ICE HOCKEY..!!
Why is Ice Hockey making headlines in the country???
The Indian Ice Hockey team is scheduled to play Championship cup of Asia in Kuwait from April 18-25.
What's the big deal in that..?
Well the thing is they do not have sufficient funds to go and play there and the sports federation i.e., the Ice Hockey Association of India(IHAI) too lack money,so,they took to social media to invite donations for their players to realize their dreams.
And that's the reason the sport of Ice Hockey is trending on social media.
RESPONSE:
Their target was reached and they promised to use the money for the players and the money that is left out will be used to develop facilities for Ice Hockey in India.
PLAYERS:
After overcoming all the obstacles the team of 27 individuals reached kuwait to prove themselves on the Asian Sporting arena.

The entire nation will support you...
