UP Yoddha coach Jasvir Singh has stated that the fitness standards of the players will be his main focus during the pre-tournament training camp which is likely to be held in June. Jasvir also recalled how injury woes affected their performance in the previous season of the Pro Kabaddi League.

With PKL scheduled to begin in July, Anup Kumar has said that he can’t guarantee any of the Puneri Paltan players a place in the starting 7 on the basis of seniority. Anup, who was appointed as the coach, has also mentioned that the performance in the pre-season camp will be important for selection.
