Hockey Champions Trophy

The Hockey Champions Trophy is the International Hockey Federation's most prestigious annual event (since 1980). Founded by Pakistan's Air Marshal Nur Khan, it features the world's top-ranked teams competing in a round robin format. The Pakistan Hockey Federation started the competition as a men's tournament in 1978 and in 1987 the first women's tournament took place.

The tournament became an annual affair after 1980. Australia have won the trophy nine times, Germany (including West Germany before reunification) also being champions nine times. The Netherlands have been champions eight times. Pakistan is the only Asian champion with three titles to its name, including the first two in 1978 and 1980.

Six teams qualify for the championship, though the first edition had five teams, the second had seven and 1987 had eight. In the year following the Olympics or a World Cup, the six teams include the host, the defending champion, the world champion and the next highest ranked teams from either the most recent World Cup or Olympic Games.

The last placed team in the tournament is dropped and replaced by the winner of the Champions Challenge, which was introduced in 2001 and can be considered as the Champions Trophy for so called B-nations.
