No village or place in the world can claim to have more hockey stars than this village.
The village is located just outside of Jalandhar in Punjab. The tradition of following one hockey star after another was achieved by this famous village without any funding from government agencies and without any foreign trained coaches. Even without having a hockey ground or astro-turf, the players of this village have always had their spirits up.

In the world of
soccer, we can compare it a little bit with the "El Chota" village
of Ecuador, because "El Chota" has given seven soccer stars to
Equador's national team. These seven soccer players also play for the world's
renowned soccer clubs. Even then "El Chota" will be placed in
second position after Sansarpur, because the number of stars produced by
Sansarpur is more.
ONCE THE VILLAGE WAS NURSERY OF INDIAN HOCKEY
There was a time
when national and international hockey matches were impossible without
including players from Sansarpur. Once it was called the "Nursery of
Indian hockey." Sansarpur boasts eight gold medals, one silver, and six
bronze medals in the Olympic Games and four gold and eight silver medals in
the Asian Games. Five Olympians have also won the Arjuna Award, which is the
highest sports award in the country.
