Maddie Hinch has urged hockey to learn from its Olympic experience and use the Commonwealth Games to transform itself.
Hinch was goalkeeping hero of the penalty shootout when Britain’s golden girls won the Rio Olympics final in 2016. It was an open goal for the sport to significantly raise its profile but Hinch believes it missed the target.“After Rio I thought it would kick on more, but it didn’t,” she said. “There was a window of opportunity and we missed it.
"We probably didn’t capitalise on the players and the fact people were wanting to know our stories. I don’t think we put ourselves out there enough."
