Format

FIH Pro League Trophy

Nine teams will compete in a round-robin tournament with home and away matches, played from January to June, with the top four teams advancing to the grand final at a pre-determined location.[2] In July 2017, Hockey India decided to withdraw both the men's and women's national teams from the competition as they estimated the chances of qualifying for the Summer Olympics to be higher when participating in the Hockey Series. Hockey India also cited lack of clarity in the ranking system.[3][4] The International Hockey Federation subsequently invited Belgium instead.[5]

On 17 September 2021, both, New Zealand and Australia, withdrew from the 2021–22 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the travel restrictions coming with it.[6][7] They were replaced by India and Spain on 8 October 2021.[8] For the 2023–24, New Zealand withdraw and was replaced by the United States.[9]

Current teams

2020 format changes

For the 2020 edition, the home and away principle is kept but this principle will now be split over two consecutive seasons and work according to the following example:[10]

  • in 2020, Team A will host Team B twice within a couple of days
  • in 2021, Team B will host Team A twice within a couple of days

Also this new format removes the grand final event, held in the previous edition.

2022 format changes

From 2022 onwards the bottom team at the end of the season will be relegated and will be replaced by the winner of a new competition called the Women's FIH Hockey Nations Cup.[11]

The home and away principle will be kept, however the season will be divided into date blocks. To assist with competition planning, international and national, several teams will gather in on venue to contest “mini-tournaments," wherein they each play two matches against one another.
