FIH President continues to lead with purpose and passion, engaging directly with hockey communities around the world to strengthen collaboration and shared growth.He shared:
“It is a great pleasure to meet with the African Hockey Federation (AfHF) and its member National Associations during the 25th Ordinary Congress in Ismailia, Egypt. This gathering provided an important opportunity to exchange ideas and share updates on FIH’s ongoing projects and strategic initiatives, with particular focus on our Empowerment and Engagement Strategy — a cornerstone of our global development vision.
Our discussions focused on advancing the growth of hockey across Africa, which remains an essential part of our collective mission and global development priorities. Together with the AfHF leadership, we explored pathways for sustainable progress, including development grants, Hockey5s pitch installations, Olympic Solidarity initiatives, and strategies to further enhance participation in international events.
I sincerely appreciate the dedication of AfHF President Seif Ahmed, the African Hockey leadership, and all AfHF National Associations for their warm hospitality, commitment, and tireless efforts to elevate hockey across the continent.
I look forward to the Africa Cup of Nations, where two teams — one per gender — will qualify for the FIH Hockey World Cup Belgium & Netherlands 2026.”
