PETALING JAYA: New national hockey team head coach Brendon Carolan has the perfect opportunity to scout for fresh faces when the Malaysian Hockey League (MHL) starts next week.

Carolan, who arrived in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday to begin his new role with the Speedy Tigers, has only four months to prepare and meet his main target of reaching the Asian Games final in Aichi-Nagoya. The Asiad starts from Sept 19-Oct 4.
