FIH has confirmed the match schedule for the men’s Hero Hockey World League Final to be played in Raipur, India between 27 November and 6 December 2015.
This year’s Final schedule will see a slight change to previous editions, whereby two matches per day will be showcased to maximise the opportunity for spectators to attend games in the evenings. As a result, only one day, Saturday 28 November, will stage four matches in one day.
The event will feature the eight national teams who qualified through the Hockey World League Semi-Finals in Buenos Aires, Argentina and Antwerp, Belgium.
Teams
Australia, ranked number one in the FIH World Rankings, Netherlands (2), Germany (3), Belgium (4), Great Britain (5, based on England), Argentina (6), hosts India (8) and Canada (13).
This will be the first international hockey event to be staged not only in the newly built Raipur International Hockey Stadium, but also in the city of Raipur, the capital of India’s Chhattisgarh state.
Matches will be telecast live by Star Sports.
