WhatsApp Status: Camp Now

Ever since the hockey players went home, the men’s team’s WhatsApp group has been inundated with messages aimed at spreading positive vibes. The volume of such messages has only increased after six members of the group tested positive for Covid-19.

“Most of the messages in the (WhatsApp) group are like ‘be positive, don’t worry about other stuff ’,” says SV Sunil to this daily. “Focus on the guidelines given to you by SAI officials. The main concern for the players”, he says, “is all of us just want to be fully fit and fine.”

Sunil, one of the longest serving members of the team, has been doing his bit, sending messages aimed at spreading positivity. Currently in quarantine at the Sports Authority of India campus at Bengaluru, he is also learning about India’s sporting legends across all sports.
