The agreement is a vital step in making sure that the 2010 World Cup in New Delhi, India will be a major success.
The FIH and the IOA already reached an agreement in mid-July, but more meetings were held during the Olympic Games in Beijing, China to establish the best possible conditions for the 2010 Men's World Cup. FIH's most important event will be a joint venture between the FIH and the IOA and will take place from 7 to 20 March 2010 in New Delhi, India.
