FIH Hockey Pro League 2025‑2026

June 13, 2026 - June 21, 2026

The 2025–26 FIH Hockey Pro League, known as the “League of the Best!”, is the seventh edition of international field hockey’s premier annual competition, featuring the world’s top nine men’s and nine women’s national teams competing across multiple continents from 9 December 2025 to 28 June 2026. Matches are contested in a series of “stage” mini‑tournaments hosted by countries in Europe, Asia, Oceania and the Americas, where teams play two fixtures per gathering as they accumulate points toward the overall standings. At the end of the season, the team with the highest points total in each division is crowned Pro League Champion and receives the coveted trophy. Meanwhile, the bottom‑placed team is relegated and replaced by the winner of the FIH Hockey Nations Cup, keeping competition high throughout the season. The 2025–26 season also serves as a direct Olympic qualifier, with both the **men’s and women’s champions earning qualification for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, adding extra stakes to every match on the global calendar.
