Description
The 1988 Seoul Olympics will be remembered for Britain's historic hockey gold medal win. The team's victory was sparked by a remarkable semi-final performance from Sean Kerly and sealed with Imran Sherwani's double in the final. Led by inspirational manager Roger Self, the team achieved their goal after an eight-year plan. Their triumph not only brought joy to the British public but also marked GB's first hockey gold since the post-war era. The story behind this remarkable achievement is told here, revealing the key factors that led to their success.
