Hockey SAouth Africa interim CEO Shaune Baaitjies says the organisation has succeeded with transformation in the national team setups, with players being selected based on performance and not their skin colour.
“In our selection process now, selectors know what’s the criteria for the whole senior bodies, they know the requirements," Baaitjies told MSW host Robert Marawa on Monday.
“The players that now take to the field, they are not there because someone is feeling sorry for them, they are there because they deserve and earned their place on that field. Our coaches don’t see colour, they see players. That is what the South African Hockey Association has been working towards for many years and we have succeeded," she said.
