"You cannot compare an Africa player who is 20-years-old, with a colleague from Europe. Africa players lack the exposure to compete at the top level largely because of the few competitions in the continent," said Mensah.
Kenya lost its glamour and glory since its last show at the Olympics back in 1984. In August, Kenya hockey teams suffered defeats to Zimbabwe at the Africa Field Hockey 2020 Olympic qualifiers in South Africa.
Kenya finished third during the Africa qualifier for the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, beating Ghana 4-3 in the play-off.
However, it was South Africa once again who got to represent the continent at the 2016 Rio Olympics after they beat Egypt. South Africa will still represent Africa in Tokyo Olympics.
