FIH outlined the women’s Hockey World Cup qualifier in Santiago, running from 2 to 8 March at the national stadium’s hockey centre. Eight teams will pursue three automatic World Cup places, with the two finalists and bronze-medal winner securing qualification.
Australia, Chile, France and Switzerland form pool A, while Japan, Ireland, Canada and Malaysia make up pool B. Group matches run through 5 March, before the semi-finals on 7 March and both medal contests on the following day.
The higher-ranked fourth-place team across Santiago and Hyderabad will also qualify for the sixteen-team World Cup. Nine countries had already booked places through earlier routes.
