The Maharashtra Ironmen have been on fire in the ongoing Premier Handball League, as they have qualified for the semi-finals of the tournament. The team has been playing as a unit, and Left back Vijay Singh has also made a fair share of contributions to the Maharashtra Ironmen›s fantastic run to the last four.
The Ironmen have won seven matches and are on top of the table with a total of 15 points. Vijay Singh feels that the team will be able to continue their performance in the last four as well, and their aim now is to win the Premier Handball League title. All the players are really confident after a strong showing in the nine matches of the league. We lost only one game, and that was because it was our first match and the players needed some time to gel together.
You can see our performance once we got into the rhythm, and I am confident that we will play well in the remaining matches as well,” stated Vijay Singh.
He added, «The credit also goes to the Maharashtra Ironmen›s supporting staff, who worked really hard with us and made sure that we give our best in the matches. They did their best to keep us mentally fit and strong. So, it is also our duty to give our best on the court and win the trophy for them and the fans.»
Vijay Singh comes from Sirsa, Haryana, and started handball at the tender age of 12, when he was in his seventh standard in his hometown. Like Vijay, there are many handball players in the state who dream to play for India in various international tournaments, and now the Premier Handball League also gives them a platform to showcase their talent.
