Indian Hockey Team Goalkeeper

Sreejesh started as a sprinter before moving on to long jump and volleyball. He joined the GV Raja Sports School in Thiruvananthapuram when he was 12. His coach there suggested he take up goalkeeping.

Sreejesh made his debut for the junior national team in 2004 before making his senior debut at the 2006 South Asian Games in Colombo. He was one of the main reasons India won a gold medal in men’s hockey at the 2014 Asian Games. Against Pakistan in the final, he had two penalty shots saved with his quick reflexes and perfect positioning. He also helped lead India to third place in Champions Trophy later that year – but Sreejesh took home the Goalkeeper of Tournament award!

In 2016, he was made captain of the national side ahead of the Rio Olympics. India lost 3-1 to Belgium in the quarterfinals. He sustained a serious ACL injury in April 2017, which took him out of action for eight months.

PR Sreejesh’s career has been filled with successes, but he finally achieved his ultimate dream in the Tokyo Olympics. In a last-minute heroic effort against Germany, PR Sreejesh managed to pull off one of many saves that won India their bronze medal and ended their Olympic campaign on a high note.
