General Interest

General
HOCKEY IN SPAIN
He is hopeful that with increased media attention the sport of hockey can attract more interest in Spain. "We understand it's a sport that is not well known. Therefore it doesn't get the coverage we wish it would. The fact that television channels are becoming interested attracts audiences. If all the people we want to come to the games don't, it's hard for it to grow. We'd like to see stadiums full like Rafa Nadal gets, of course, but at the moment it's quite complicated." (europapress.es, 19 Oct 2019)
