Nepal Hockey Association plans, directs and conducts all the activities for both men's and women's field hockey in Nepal. It is registered under National Sports Council as the sole body responsible towards promoting the sport.
NHA is one of the oldest sport governing bodies in Nepal. The sport was really popular in the country (especially Kathmandu area) in 70s and 90s. In recent years the association has been committed to reaching new heights of the game in the country by introducing grassroot level programs in schools nationwide. [2]
Yearly, national-level tournaments for men and women are organized. [3]
On 22 April, 2024, Dhulikhel also allocated land for the construction of an international-level hockey stadium. [4] Bagmati Province Sports Development Council is preparing the DPR for the stadium's construction. Additionally, the site will consist of a training hall, fitness studio, and all other required facilities.
