Dhyan Chand

Dhyan Chand (29 August 1905 – 3 December 1979) was an Indian Hockey player, who is considered as one of the greatest Hockey players in the history of the sport. He is known for his extraordinary goal-scoring feats, in addition to earning three Olympic gold medals (1928, 1932, and 1936) in the field of hockey, during an era where India was the most dominant team in Hockey. His influence extended beyond these victories, as India won the men's field hockey gold medal in seven out of eight Olympics from 1928 to 1964. Such was his aura that it is believed that after India defeated Germany in the 1936 Olympics final 8-1, Hitler offered him a senior post in the German Army after witnessing his splendid performance to which he refused and stated that India was and will be his country. Known as The Wizard or The Magician of hockey for his superb ball control, Chand played his final international match in 1948, having scored more than 400 goals (highest goal scorer in history of hockey) during his international career. The Government of India awarded him the third highest civilian honour of Padma Bhushan in 1956. His birthday, 29 August, is celebrated as National Sports Day in India every year.In 1951 Chand was honored at India's National Stadium with the inaugural Dhyan Chand Tournament, which he attended to the admiration of the spectators.Chand retired from the army in 1956 aged 51, with the rank of Major.After retirement, he taught at coaching camps at Mount Abu, Rajasthan. Later, he accepted the position of Chief Hockey Coach at the National Institute of Sports, Patiala, the post which he held for several years.
