Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna: Former Indian Men’s Hockey Team goalkeeper PR Sreejesh, who recently hung his boots, has been nominated for the prestigious FIH Men’s Goalkeeper of the Year Award 2024, following his standout performance at the Paris Olympics 2024.

In what was his final international tournament, Sreejesh displayed exceptional skill and resilience, making crucial saves during key moments that led to India securing the Bronze medal and achieving a historic milestone of winning back-to-back Olympic medals for the first time in over five decades, since the 1972 Munich Olympics.

It’s a special recognition for me, especially as I conclude my journey in international hockey.
