The 10th version of the FIH Women’s Junior Hockey World Cup begins on April 1 in Potchefstroom, South Africa. An occasion was initially planned to happen in December, yet must be delayed four months on account of the Covid-19 pandemic and the flare-up of Omicron variation.
There are a couple of changes in the program this time, as customary forces to be reckoned with Australia, New Zealand and Spain selected to skirt the occasion as a result of the pandemic. A couple of days before the beginning of the competition, the FIH declared that, “Ukrainian Hockey Association has informed us today that their Women’s Junior group can avoid the forthcoming FIH Hockey Women’s Junior World Cup ultimately, in spite of its enthusiastic endeavors to attempt to make it conceivable.”

Yet, there won’t be any deficiency of large groups present at the opposition, as the four distinct victors of the occasion – the Netherlands (three-time champions), double cross champs South Korea and Argentina, and champions at the debut version in 1989, Germany will contend.
