Format


The Hockey Series is open to national teams that are not playing in the Hockey Pro League.


The Hockey Series takes place in two rounds, the Open and the Finals. The nine highest ranked teams in the FIH World Rankings (as of 9 June 2017) skip the Open and advance directly to the Finals. All other national teams play in the Hockey Series Open. Fifteen teams will qualify from the Hockey Series Open to the Hockey Series Finals, for a total of 24 teams in the Finals. Those teams will play in three events, with eight teams per event (three automatic qualifiers and five that advanced from the Open).[3]


The top two placed teams in each of the Finals events will qualify for the Olympic qualification events.[4] In this qualification event, they will be joined by the top four placed teams from the Pro League, and the two highest ranked teams not already qualified. The teams will be drawn and play a two-legged tie to determine six qualified nations for the Olympic Games.
