The 24-year-old defender also revealed how his seniors had supported him since his two-year doping ban in 2015.

Indian hockey defender Jarmanpreet Singh, feels mental fitness is as important as physical fitness to deal with the current pandemic. He said that players have been helping each other to create a positive environment around the team .

"I feel mental fitness is as important as physical fitness to deal with the current situations. A player needs to be mentally strong, and for that, we have been helping each other. We communicate with each other so that everyone stays in a happy zone. I feel because of this, there's a very good team bonding, which has been helping us with our Olympics preparations," said Jarmanpreet Singh.

The 24-year-old feels he is fortunate to have the support from the senior players since the beginning of his career in 2018.

"I am very fortunate and thankful to all senior players as well as coaches. They knew my past (the two-year doping ban in 2015), they knew I was returning after a long time. They have guided me at each step, and have been motivating me a lot. Moreover, it also helps when you have a senior player as a roommate. Kothajit (Singh) paaji is my roommate here, and we share a good bond on and off the field. We both talk about hockey off the field, and it has been helping me improve as a player," Jarmanpreet Singh said.

The defender also spoke about how the team is dealing with the current situations, with not getting international tours due to the travel restrictions ahead of the Olympic Games.

"My focus remains only on giving my best, with the full energy, and trying to improve each and every day at the training. I put on a challenge to myself that, I should keep reducing my margin of error," concluded Jarmanpreet Singh.
