Women’s FIH Hockey Olympic Qualifiers Ranchi 2024: Full schedule, squads, match timings and live streaming details

The International Hockey Federation (FIH) is all set to host the Women’s FIH Hockey Olympic Qualifier in Ranchi with eight out of the 16 teams participating in this campaign. The other eight teams will take part in the Women’s FIH Hockey Olympic Qualifier in Valencia. Both qualifiers will commence on January 13, Saturday.

Teams have been divided into pools based on their world ranking at midnight of November 5, 2023. In the Ranchi Qualifiers, Pool A will have teams from Germany, Japan, Chile, and the Czech Republic, while Pool B comprises India, New Zealand, the United States, and Italy.

Initially, China was expected to be the host of the qualifiers. However, after the China Women's team directly qualified for the Paris Olympics, thanks to their Asian Games victory, FIH moved the Qualifiers to India.

Australia (Women and Men), China (Women), France (hosts), India (Men) and Netherlands (Women and Men) have already claimed their spot at the Paris Olympics 2024. Three teams from each qualifier move to the main Olympic event in Paris. The Paris Hockey Olympic games will happen from 27th July to 9th August 2024.

Team India will be led by goalkeeper Savita with their first game scheduled against the United States on January 13. Later, they will face New Zealand on January 14 and Italy on January 16.
