Background

The trophy and mascots for the inaugural edition were unveiled on 3rd January 2025 at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium. [9] The blue trophy is for the men's competition while the green trophy is for the women's. [10]

Participants

The event witnessed the participation of 23 countries from six continents, featuring 20 men's and 19 women's teams. [7] Each squad had 15 players, one coach, one manager and international technical officials. [11]

Canada (men's team only) and Pakistan had been due to participate, but the Canadian team pulled out due to worsening Canada–India relations, [12] while the Pakistani team was not granted visas. [13] In total, 35 countries sought to participate, but restrictions were in place to ensure continental balance. [14]
