I agree with most of the points mentioned.
However, I would like to mention that we have this expensive Astroturf in the Maulana Bhashani National Hockey Stadium. Possibly we have it at BKSP as well and BKSP has also been making a group of Hockey players every year.
Finally, I cannot understand why should steps not be taken to develop Hockey further? Our past record in Hockey, as compared to Soccer, is not that bad. If our policy makers really find no potential for this sports, they should stop sending our teams for International competitions.
