Australia Qualify For FIH Hockey Men’s World Cup 2026
FIH Hockey Pro League: Following Britain’s loss against Belgium in the FIH Hockey Pro League match on Sunday, Australia have qualified for the FIH Hockey Men’s World Cup 2026 to be held in Belgium and Netherlands.
At the start of the 2023/24 season of the FIH Hockey Pro League, a new incentive was added to the event, with the title winners earning direct qualification to the upcoming FIH Hockey World Cups 2026.
As per the rules, in the event of Belgium or Netherlands winning either of the men’s or women’s title, the team finishing in the highest position behind them would gain direct entry. Australia, currently placed first in the men’s table with 34 points, have already completed their 16 matches. With Britain dropping points today, the maximum points they can now achieve is 31, leaving them out of the title contention.
