Notes from the field

Field hockey is very popular in sport in my family, my grandfather played and my father also played internationally for Spain. My older brothers also play and at international level to, it runs in the family. Both of my brothers coached me when I was young and that's how I knew I wanted to play field hockey. I liked football a lot too but because my family played hockey I choose to that route. Aside from hockey, I study psychology and perhaps this is where my future after hockey lies.

Nico's Ritual

I'm not a person who has a lot of routines before games, but I do always put on my left shoe first and then my left shin guard.
