Dear Media Member, IIt gives me great pleasure to welcome you to India for the Odisha Men’s Hockey World League Final Bhubaneswar 2017. Firstly, let me offer my sincere congratulations to the seven men’s teams who each earned the right to play in this Final thanks to outstanding performances at the respective Semi-Final events in London and Johannesburg earlier this year, joining home favourites India for what is expected to be an exciting climax to the 2017 hockey calendar. With Argentina, Australia, Belgium, England, Germany, Netherlands, Spain and hosts India all in action at the Kalinga Stadium, a venue that will play host to next year’s Odisha Hockey Men’s World Cup Bhubaneswar 2018, the competition is of the very highest calibre. The journey to the Odisha Men’s Hockey World League Final began way back in April 2016, when Singapore hosted the first of eight Round 1 events. Round 1 lead into three Round 2 competitions ahead of the sensational Semi-Final events, with India now ready to host the concluding chapter in what has been an epic showcase for the sport. The global nature of the Hockey World League highlights the inclusivity of hockey, giving developing nations the opportunity to play against the top ranked hockey teams whilst also allowing fans all around the world to experience world class hockey in their own back yard. The Kalinga Stadium has enjoyed a great deal of exceptional hockey in recent years, with the venue playing host not only to the Hero Men’s Champions Trophy in 2014 but also being the stage in which the Kalinga Lancers have lit up the Hockey India League. Yet again, the stadium will welcome the world’s best, and all eight teams will be looking for a title success which could provide a crucial psychological advantage ahead of the Odisha Hockey Men’s World Cup Bhubaneswar 2018. I would like to offer my sincere thanks to Hockey India and all of their partners for their tremendous efforts ahead of this event. We have absolutely no doubt that you will deliver a hugely successful tournament that embodies the Big, Bold, Packed and Loud ideals that sit at the heart of the Hockey Revolution. Our thanks must also go to the sponsors and the hundreds of volunteers who are crucial to making this competition a success. May I wish all of the athletes and officials the best of luck and hope that everyone attending gets to experience the rich culture and warm hospitality offered by this wonderful country. Yours in hockey, Dr Narinder Dhruv Batra FIH President 2 CNT Official Event Partner Official Event Supplier FIH Global Leadership Partner FIH Global Media Partner FIH Official Partner FIH Official Suppliers The Hockey World League Bhubaneswar Fast-paced and action-packed, the Hockey World League gives hockey fans the chance to see their team go all the way to the Hockey World Cup or Olympic Games. Composed of four rounds and played over two years, the Hockey World League shines a spotlight on the sport around the world. Even the smallest hockey-playing nations can make their mark and write their own chapter in hockey’s history books. Fans will experience displays of exceptional skill and outstanding physical fitness, with non-stop action and plenty of goals. Fast and furious, precise and powerful, hockey has it all. Thousands of spectators are expected to witness all the action live, with millions more watching on TV and online around the world. More information about the Hockey World League can be found on www.fih.ch 3 CNT Official Event Partner Official Event Supplier FIH Global Leadership Partner FIH Global Media Partner FIH Official Partner FIH Official Suppliers The Hockey World League Bhubaneswar Trophies - a brief history The Finals competitions in Auckland (women) and Bhubaneswar (men) will bring the curtain down on the third season of the Hockey World League, with eight nations determined to make their mark and earning the right to raise the trophy aloft. In 2013, the Netherlands achieved a remarkable double in the inaugural edition of the Hockey World League, with both the men’s and women’s international teams storming to glory at the respective competitions. Oranje women claimed the title with a superb display at the Final in San Miguel de Tucaman in Argentina, while the dazzling Dutch men’s team overcame all challengers to triumph in New Delhi. The silverware attained by the Dutch national teams in the first edition of the competition were redesigned ahead of the 2014-15 season. With new look trophies also came new winners, as Argentina women took the title on home soil in Rosario and Australia’s Kookaburras emerging victorious in Raipur, India. The new trophies were designed and constructed in London, England. Both the men’s and women’s trophies feature a single stack column of 12 walnut plectrums surrounded by gold effect wings, placed on a hardwood walnut base. The trophies weigh approximately 1.2 kilograms each, while the top plectrum of each trophy features a map of the world which has been inlaid by 23 carat gold leaf. The now iconic second generation trophies will be up for grabs in the third edition of the competition. Time will reveal just who will earn the right to lift these trophies above their heads. When they do, they will be creating their own magical moment of hockey history. 4 CNT Official Event Partner Official Event Supplier FIH Global Leadership Partner FIH Global Media Partner FIH Official Partner FIH Official Suppliers Overview of Hockey Bhubaneswar World League 2016-17 A summary of the 2016-17 edition of the Hockey World League can be found below.
