The 2024–25 Men's FIH Pro League is the sixth edition of the Men's FIH Pro League, a field hockey championship for men's national teams. The tournament began on 30 November 2024 and will finish on 29 June 2025.

Contents

Format

The home and away principle was kept for the season, which was divided into date blocks. To assist with competition planning, international and national, several teams gathered in one venue to contest “mini-tournaments," wherein they each played two matches against one another.

If one of the two matches played between two teams was cancelled, the winner of the other match received double points.

The winning team will earn direct qualification to the 2026 World Cup.

Teams

Following their win of the 2023–24 FIH Nations Cup, the promoted team were set with New Zealand replacing the relegated team of the last season of the 2023–24 FIH Pro League, Ireland. [1] [2] On 1 October 2024, New Zealand withdrew and Ireland was named to replace them. [3]
