Hockey India (HI) has said that it wants Indias chief coach Roelant Oltmans to continue in his current position till the 2020 Olympics. His existing contract is set to expire in January 2017.Speaking to ESPN , HI president Narinder Batra said that the recommendation had been forwarded to the Sports Authority of India for approval.We want Oltmans to stay with us as chief coach till the Tokyo Games. This decision comes after discussions with Oltmans. He has agreed to it and we have sent our proposal to SAI for approval, he said.Oltmans, who took over as the High Performance Director of the side in 2013 and was given the added responsibility of chief coach in August last year, came in after a spate of foreign predecessors, with Michael Nobbs (2011-13) serving the longest tenure among them.Batra hinted that HI is likely to appoint a separate High Performance Director, so that Oltmans can focus on his coaching role.Of course I want to continue in my current position of chief coach no doubt, Oltmans said, Yes, its under process, I have another two-and-a-half months or so before my contract expires Theres a lot of potential in this team and the results will have to improve. We have won a couple of medals over the last year and need to get more consistent.Under Oltmans, India had their best-ever finish at the Champions Trophy, winning a silver in June. The team also won a bronze at the World League Final in December 2015, a maiden podium finish for the senior team outside Asia at a global event in 35 years.While Indias performance at the Rio Olympics this year was slightly underwhelming - a quarterfinal loss to Belgium was not exactly the result that was being anticipated - the side has notably turned into a more cohesive unit, with a robust core group of players.PR Sreejesh, the captain, agreed that the players would prefer Oltmans stay on with the side.We have been training under him for past three years, he knows each of our particular strengths and we are comfortable with his style of functioning. We would be happy though to accept whatever decision is finally taken in this regard since our job is to go out and play irrespective of whos the coach. Adidas Stan Smith Wit Heren .

Three came down to the fourth quarter while quarterbacks continued to shine in all four games; so important to the overall quality of the game. Missy Franklin and Ryan Lochte will be busy in the pool at the Rio Olympics. Just not as busy as they wanted to be.The two popular stars from the U.S. swimming team four years ago in London have just three individual events between them in Rio, hardly the frenetic schedule theyve grown accustomed to over the years.Four years ago, Franklin swam four individual events and three relays, while Lochte had four individual events, plus two relays. Together, they won 10 medals.This time, neither will defend their Olympic titles in two events. Franklin failed to qualify for the 100-meter backstroke at the recent U.S. trials, while Lochte, bothered by a groin injury, didnt make the team in the 400 individual medley.The perpetually upbeat Franklin put a positive spin on her reduced schedule that will give her more time in the stands cheering on her teammates.Im still a second-time Olympian, I get to go to Rio, I get to be a part of this team, she said.Franklins seventh-place finish in the 100 back at trials had her in the unusual position of publicly working through major disappointment.You have this idea in your head that everyones careers are perfect all the time, and as soon as yours starts to waver a little bit you start wondering, `Oh my goodness, why is this happening? she said. You sort of start to realize no one has the perfect career, no one makes every team in every event that they want to.At 17, Franklin was one of the biggest stars at the London Olympics, competing in seven events and winning four gold medals and a bronze. Away from the pool, she didnt cash in right away since she wanted to compete collegiately.After two years at California, Franklin turned pro last year, setting up major endorsement deals heading into Rio. Shes found it challenging balancing training with accommodating sponsors demands for photo shoots, commercials and appearances.Its fun, absolutely, but that doesnt mean its not hard, she said. Its definitely more to juggle than what I had to in 2012. I definitely have some days when I wake up and Im more tired than normal.Also making it difficult is Franklins inclination to please others, sometimes at her expense. Shes had to learn to say no and not feel guilty.She will literally look at somebody and say, `Have you had enough pictures? Im going to start my practice now, her coach Todd Schmitz said.dddddddddddd. I stand there and go, `Good, yes. Ive always told her I will be the bad guy every single time, but I cant always be there.Schmitz will be part of Franklins support team in Rio, although not as a member of the U.S. coaching staff as he was four years ago.But, while Franklin has more money in her pocket, its been a struggle to regain the form that made her the worlds most dominant female swimmer -- a title ceded to fellow American Katie Ledecky.One of the things Ive been trying to do this whole year is not compare myself to where I was in 2012, said Franklin, who returned home to Colorado to train with Schmitz. I came in here to be the best of who I am right now, not who I was four years ago.Franklin will try to better her fourth-place finish from London when she competes in the 200 freestyle and defends her gold in the 200 backstroke in Rio, while Lochte swims the 200 IM, where hes medaled in three straight Olympics. Both qualified to swim on the womens and mens 800 free relay.Lochte turns 32 on Aug. 3, two days before the games open. He has 11 career medals going into his fourth Olympics.Its a lot harder because Im older, he said. I cant put my body through certain practices or sets that I used to be able to do.In London, Lochte won the 400 IM on the first day of the eight-day competition, and then made what he called his biggest mistake of the games.I didnt do the right recovery process after that win because I was just like, `Screw this, Im happy, he recalled. I think that kind of hurt me throughout the meet. Now that Ive gotten more mature, Im listening to my body more.Hes also listening to coach Dave Marsh, who will oversee the U.S. womens team in Rio. After London, Lochte relocated his training base to Charlotte, North Carolina, and cut back his partying lifestyle in favor of more time in the pool.When hes in the water working hard, hes probably his most happy, Marsh said.After Rio, Franklin will return to college. Lochte is likely to keep swimming, as long as hes still having fun.I said the day you finish is the day youre going to meet up with a girl and have grandchildren, his mother Ike Lochte said. He just laughs at me. Discount NFL Jerseys Discount NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale Jerseys 2019 NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys Wholesale ' ' '
