KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysia Hockey League (MHL) has become a mockery after two foreign clubs - Liaoning Province from China and Territory Stingers from Australia - withdrew from the second round of the national league.
Both Liaoning and Territory teams featured in the first round of the men's league from April 11 to May 17 but withdrew from the second round matches from Oct 5 to Dec 6.
Former national player Maninderjit Singh said that both foreign teams promised a plan to participate in a two-window league.
It is learnt that costs to play in the second round of MHL would have been a factor for both teams to withdraw from the league.
