Kelantan to use Tun Razak Stadium as home ground

Division Two champions MSS Kelantan will use the Tun Razak Hockey Stadium in Jalan Duta as their home ground for the MHF-Milo-NSC Junior Hockey League (MJHL) knockout stage.

Malaysian Hockey Federation (MHF) secretary Hashim Mohd Yusoff said this was because that his team do not have an artificial turf.

Kelantan even played all their Division Two league matches away.

“Every state have an artificial turf and it is high time that Kelantan have one too,” said Hashim.

“For the knockout stage, they will use the Tun Razak Stadium as their base.”

Debutants MSS Kelantan have an uphill task as they face Division One runners-up Tenaga Nasional in the quarter-final stage of the overall cup competition.

The first-leg will be played at the Kuala Lumpur Hockey Stadium tomorrow while the return leg will be held on Sunday at the Tun Razak Stadium.
