Men's Jr Asia Cup Hockey: India Eye Title Defense Ahead Of Home World Cup Next Year
India enter the tournament as defending champions after beating arch-rivals Pakistan 2-1 last year. They also hold the record for most titles with four (including 2023, 2015, 2008 and 2004) accolades to their name in the tournament. This time the team is led by captain Amir Ali and vice-captain Rohit while two-time Olympic bronze medallist PR Sreejesh is performing the head coach's role.
The ten participating teams have been split into two pools, with Pool A comprising Chinese Taipei, India, Japan, Korea and Thailand. In Pool B hosts Oman will be joined by Bangladesh, China, Malaysia and Pakistan. Each team in the pool stage will play the other four teams in their pool once. The top two teams in both pools will qualify for the semifinals, while the teams in third and fourth positions will compete for the 5-8 place classification. The teams finishing in the fifth place in both pools will go head-to-head to avoid finishing in the tenth place.
