There needs clarification regarding who of these two,
Philomena Trinadade and Loretta D'Souza, were selected
as the second goalkeeper for the Moscow Olympics. I
remember  Loretta. I covered the camp at Pune.

I believed it was Trinidade, but its getting mysterious. Her name is not on

as a high jumper)
7) Otilia Mascarenhas - Brunst

Eugene,
Eliza Nelson was very much Goan. She lived on Dastur Meher Road in
Poona. She used to be Eliza Mendonca. Her family has been known to mine
since the fifties, when my dad first came to Poona as a student.

 Yes, Margaret Toscano, of the famous Tosa's restaurant
 in Mumbai, was the goalkeeper. Selma D'Cunha from
 Dabul and Fiona Albuquerque were in the team.
 I am not sure if Eliza Nelson was a Goan. I know she
 was from Pune.
 The best bet is to contact the All-India Women's
 Hockey Association. There were a few Goa-based Goans
 who played for India.

  In the discussion of international women hockey players of Goan origin, I 
don't seem to have noticed the name of Lorretta D'Souza, from Moira. She was 
the only resident of Goa  to have played in the gold medal winning 1980 Moscow 
Olympics team. She was I think the second choice goalkeeper.
   
  She's now married to Adv. T.T Srinivasan, has two sons, lives in Vasco,  and 
works in the Customs.

Hi Jason,
The entire Tanzanian ladies hockey team would have been made up of Goans. I 
only remember seeing the Tanzanian ladies play one international match.
 
In the late sixties, early seventies, a Goan lady from Uganda married a 
Tanzanian goal keeper, Ludger Gomes. She played for Uganda ( I cant remember 
her name right now) but was the best lady hockey player I have seen ever. She 
was so fast that she could dodge players from the men's team with whom she 
practised. Her brother is a  referee and runs the men's hockey tournaments in 
Toronto today.
 
My favourite ladies hockey player is my former neighbour, Ina Rebello. She 
introduced me to the game and played for the Goan clubs in Dar before playing 
for India in several world cups. She now lives in Mumbai.

Hi Goanetters,

Eugene Correia asked me a question and that set me off on the path of some 
research. Any one out there who can throw some light on any International Women 
Hockey Players of Goan Origin who have represented India or their respective 
countries in international hockey tournaments .. 

The most famous names that come to mind are that of Dr Otilia Mascarenhas, 
Lorraine Fernandes and Selma D'Silva. 

Sybil Miranda (was she a D'Mello before?), Elvira Britto, Donita D'Mello, Fiona 
Albuquerque, Angela D'Sa have played for India, but i am not too sure if they 
have Goan roots. 

Any idea if Erminda Menezes (daughter of Sacru Menezes) played for India?

I know there have been loads of Goan who have played  for India. What about 
other countries?

Any information will be much appreciated. 

Jason

 Philomena Trinidade, Goalkeeper Moscow Olympics,
From B.P.T. Wadala, Mumbai. Now in the US. Sports Medicine. Also Hockey
coach if I am not mistaken. Practiced at Guru Nanak Khalsa college, and Don
Bosco Matunga. Often felt that the Salesians perhaps saw her as a physical
(tough girl) manifestation of both Mary's in the Bible. If I remember
correctly, one of her coaches was Jaswant Singh,

 MONDAY MUSE (2 June 2008)
 MIRROR
 Some stories we hear in school make greater sense if we connect to them.
 One such story was about the House of 100 Mirrors.
 ?
 A puppy learned of this place and decided to visit. He happily scaled the
 stairs and looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail
 wagging as fast as it could. He found himself staring at many other happy
 little puppies with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled and
 was answered with many great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left
 the House, he thought to himself, This is a wonderful place. I will come
 back and visit it often.
 In this same village, another little puppy, who was perpetually unhappy,
 decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head
 low as he looked into the door. When he saw many unfriendly looking canines
 staring back at him, he barked at them and was horrified to see all the
 angry puppies growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, That
 is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again.
 In the real world, all the faces we encounter are mirrors. And more often
 than not, the immediate reflection we see on their faces is our own. We
 choose the kind of reflections we see on the faces of the people we meet.
 And hence we must choose to be better at the mood we allow ourselves to be
 in.
 After all, hope and despair, cheer and frown are all very infectious. It is
 our approach and our actions that trigger an aligned response. So if we want
 to be surrounded by happy, positive faces, we must begin with making the
 right changes in our own mental makeup and behaviour.? Mirrors, they say,
 don?t lie.
 The people around, mirror our own selves you see
 For the world to BE BETTER, I must start with me?
