Phnom Penh, May 10, 2024 --

A Cambodian women team expects to excel at the 2024 Women's Indoor Hockey Asia Cup, to be held from May 13 to 16 in Thailand.

The optimism was shared by Mr. Kang Sothea, Secretary General of the Cambodian Hockey Federation (CHF), stressing that the Cambodian women's team has accumulated sufficient experience to achieve it.

He added that they joined a friendly hockey match in Saraburi province of Thailand in February and the SEA Games 2023 in Cambodia, winning two bronze medals.

If the team achieves a good result, they will have an opportunity for the forthcoming Asian Martial Arts.

Ten (10) countries are expected to join the tournament, and Cambodia will be in group B with host Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and Vietnam, according to Mr. Kang Sothea.

Group A includes Iran, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Nepal, and Oman, he added.

This is the second time the Cambodian women team has participated in the event. Last year, Cambodia was ranked second among the 12 participating countries.
