FIH President Tayyab Ikram inaugurated the Hockey5s pitch at Zamalek Sporting Club in Cairo, Egypt — as part of the FIH Empowerment and Engagement Strategy — More Places to Play — marking another key milestone in the expansion of Hockey5s infrastructure across the world.
This inauguration is part of FIH’s broader Empowerment and Engagement Strategy, through which around 20 Hockey5s pitches are planned for installation this year, aiming to make the sport more accessible and inspiring for young athletes worldwide.
During his visit, President Ikram interacted with young athletes and future Olympians, encouraging them to carry forward hockey’s values of teamwork, passion, and perseverance.
We are working together with all Continental Federations and National Associations under the FIH Empowerment and Engagement Strategy — the More Places to Play initiative — to increase the accessibility of hockey across the world.
He also praised the African Hockey Federation (AfHF) and the Egyptian Hockey Federation for their dedicated efforts to strengthen hockey development and drive the FIH Empowerment and Engagement in the region.
This initiative reinforces FIH’s commitment to empowering the next generation of players and advancing Hockey for All. 🌍✨
