6. The Help Side - Adam Dixon - Part A
#TheHelpSide Adam Dixon is the current captain of the Great Britain men’s hockey team and is one of the most highly respected players in world hockey having represented England and GB on more than 250 occasions. Adam is an Olympian, a dual Commonwealth Games medalist, a European Championships Gold medalist, a Hockey India League champion, and above all else he is a ripping bloke who I had the good fortune of playing with at Kalinga Lancers back in 2017. We cover quite a bit of ground in this interview - so much so that we’ve had to split it into two episodes!
In this episode, Adam gives us an insight into the GB high performance set up and the challenges of the lockdown - including how he was he forced into early isolation with suspected coronavirus symptoms - but don’t worry it’s alright he’s ok. We talk about the current state of the game in the UK - a country where hockey is enjoying a bit of a renaissance following the London Olympics and the gold medal success of the GB women at the Rio games. Adam is open, thoughtful and has some interesting perspectives on where the game needs to head to break into the mainstream.
