Birendra Lakra Joins Indian Junior Men’s Hockey Team As Assistant Coach
Lakra’s transition from a player to a mentor is expected to strengthen the Indian junior men’s team’s defensive structure and overall game temperament, key elements as they gear up for a highly competitive FIH Hockey Men’s Junior World Cup 2025 at home, scheduled to take place from November 28 to December 10 in Chennai and Madurai.
A seasoned international, Lakra made his debut for India in 2010 and went on to become one of the country’s most consistent and reliable defenders. He represented India in two Olympic Games – London 2012 and Tokyo 2020, where India won a historic bronze medal. Over an illustrious career spanning over a decade, Lakra played a key role in India’s campaigns at the World Cup, Asian Games, Commonwealth Games, and other major tournaments.
