After a seven-year break, the Hockey India League (HIL) is making its highly awaited comeback, bringing back interest among hockey fans across the country. The league, which is set to run from December 28, 2024, to February 1, 2025, promises to be an exciting demonstration of ability and competition.
This year’s tournament features a strong field, with eight teams competing in the men’s tournament and four in the women’s event. This demonstrates a strong commitment to developing both formats of the game. The league’s round-robin format ensures that all teams have adequate opportunities to display their talent and fight for top honors.
The competition is scheduled to take place in two traditional hockey hubs: Rourkela and Ranchi. The men’s matches will be held in Rourkela, while the women’s matches will be held in Ranchi.
