Tenaga Nasional Berhad reached the final of the Tan Sri P. Alagendra Cup Knockout Tournament with a quality performance to edge Terengganu Hockey Team (THT) 3-2 in the semifinals at the Kuala Lumpur Hockey Stadium today. It was about the best ever performance from a side that is still struggling in the basement of the TNBMHL 2016 Premier League with just two points from six matches. Both teams played to a 4-4 draw in the first lap of the Premier League two weeks ago. TNB owed their greatest debt of gratitude, though, to a certain extent to goalkeeper S. Kumar for keeping...

Kuala Lumpur Hockey Club (KLHC) suffered a setback in their chase for the TNB Malaysian Premier Hockey League crown when they only managed a 1-1 draw against a resilient Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL) at the Kuala Lumpur Hockey Stadium in Jalan Pantai on Friday.

It was the second match on the trot, and against weaker and younger opposition, that KLHC dropped points after a 1-1 match against Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL) on Friday. But nothing should be taken away from TNB, as their gallant second-half display showed that they have the motivation and drive to battle it out with the best in the league. In other...

Tenaga Nasional Berhad proved too strong for Division One outfit Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) as they romped to an 11-0 victory in the TNBMHL 2016 Knockout Tournament for the Tan Sri P. Alagendra Cup at the Kuala Lumpur Hockey Stadium today. Following two Premier League defeats within a week - losing 3-4 to Maybank and 0-1 on Sunday against Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL) - the big margin win over UiTM in the first round was certainly a welcome sign for TNB as far as head coach Muhammad Amin Rahim is concerned. The win propelled TNB to the August 30 quarterfinals. However, the...
