Qualifying Process for Hockey World Cups.

The hosts will qualify automatically.
The winners of the Continental Championships will qualify directly (5 teams).
The remaining teams making up the 16 nations in the FIH Hockey World Cup will qualify through home-and-away play-offs.
The teams involved in these qualifiers will be determined by Continental quotas, based on the FIH World Rankings at the end of the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 and the finishing positions of teams in the Continental Championships.

FIH CEO Thierry Weil said:

“FIH has received excellent bids to host these prestigious events. It was therefore a difficult choice to make. Since the primary mission of FIH is to grow the sport worldwide - which of course requires to make investments -, the income-generation potential of each bid has played an important role in the decision.”

Commenting on the organization of the FIH Hockey World Cups, he added:“We will work closely with the Local Organizing Committees on the sustainability and legacy aspects of these events.”
