FIH Hockey Junior World Cups: Chile’s capital city, Santiago, will host the revamped 11th edition of the FIH Hockey Women’s Junior World Cup next year, the International Hockey Federation (FIH) revealed on Monday. The South American nation will be hosting the event for the fourth time which will now be the largest-ever field bringing together young stars from all over the world.

The 2025 edition, the dates of which will be declared at a later date, will have eight more teams in the fray. The number of teams has been increased as per the FIH Empowerment and Engagement strategy to give more opportunities to play to a larger and more diverse number of National Associations.

Thus, the 2025 FIH Hockey Junior World Cups – women and men – will involve 24 teams for the first time ever in the history of FIH!
