#5: Coach BC Ramesh

The Arjuna awardee has been a former captain of the Indian national team, and not only that but also featured in the gold medal winning squad of the Asian Games at Busan and Bangkok, and thus knows exactly what it takes to win a championship.
So the Puneri Paltan players have an ideal role model to look up to while as the coach BC Ramesh will ensure that his team is excelling in all departments whether it is performance, fitness, tactics or coordination on the mat.
He seemed confident of his team's chances when he was quoted as saying in an earlier interview that, “So close yet so far, is what aptly defines our team. Last two seasons, we finished third. But this year, it will be different. The title will be ours.”
