BKSP youth hockey champs
Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protisthan (BKSP) dethroned joint champions Rajshahi, beating them 4-0 in the final of the Agrani Bank 23rd National Youth Hockey Championship at the Maulana Bhasani Hockey Stadium yesterday. This was BKSP's 11th title overall and ninth in the last ten editions.
BKSP led the first half 2-0 with a brace from Khorshedur Rahman who converted two penalty corners. However, the sports institution survived three close calls, thanks to brave saves from goalkeeper Ashim Gope, before Khorshedur struck in the 30th and 34th minutes to give his side a 2-0 lead.
After resumption, BKSP widened the margin with Deen Mohammad scoring a field goal in the 63rd minute before Rummon Sarker sealed the deal with a fourth goal a minute later.
Finance minister Abul Maal Abdul Muhith distributed prizes as the chef guest of the closing ceremony.
