Lausanne, Switzerland: The International Hockey Federation (FIH) is delighted to announce that it has launched a portal specifically dedicated to its National Associations on its website FIH.hockey.

The new Development portal, that is an integral part of the FIH Empowerment and Engagement Strategy, is designed to provide a centralised hub of resources and information for the global hockey community. It features exhaustive information about the FIH Academy activities, including all courses that are on offer, the FIH Quality Programme and numerous examples of hockey development projects. It showcases the initiatives and activities led by FIH, Continental Federations (CFs), and National Associations (NAs) around the globe.

The portal will be the platform for National Associations to post their stories and tell about their development work & activities.

FIH President Tayyab Ikram said: “Empowering and engaging with our National Associations, and fostering the growth of hockey globally, remain at the core of our mission. This new portal will grow over time and represent our commitment to creating and sharing innovative solutions that address the needs of our members while celebrating the incredible work being done across the global hockey community.”

From grassroots programmes to elite development efforts, the portal serves as a major resource for sharing knowledge, best practices, and inspiring success stories from the hockey community. Everyone, from athletes to coaches, from officials to executives will find relevant information for their own activities in these pages.
