 The lists clearly shows that Sansarpur  players  were  selected  to  play  for  University teams from  Punjab University (Chandigarh) and  GNDU (Amritsar). Both  if  these  teams  have  been  the  strongest  University hockey teams even  for  the  pre-partition  days  still  dominate  University hockey .

       We  find  that  Sansarpur  representation  in  Punjab University began  as  in  1946 , as Praior  to  this  Sansarpur children  were  not able to get  University education . Sansarpur  representation  in  GNDU  began  in  1971 , the  foundation  year  of  the  University .

       Here also we find that Sansarpur representation in University hockey declined consid- erably in 80s and 90s as compared  to  60s and 70s  which were  dominated  by  Sansarpur  University  players .
