Speaking about the FIH Centennial, FIH President Tayyab Ikram said: “Today, we stand on the cusp of history, marking 100 years of dedication, passion, and growth in the world of hockey. This is not just a celebration; it is a commemoration of a century of resilience, progress, and the unyielding spirit of the hockey community.

We pay tribute to our athletes, visionary leaders, dedicated volunteers, valued partners, and to all those who have been part of this incredible journey.

Our journey, from seven member associations to a sport played in 140 countries, is a testament to the enduring power of hockey. It has been more than just a game; it has been a force for unity, resilience, and positive change marking a century of sporting excellence.

I must express my appreciation and admiration for our heroes, our athletes of all times. They have shown great resilience and adaptability by adjusting to changing conditions, environments, equipment, rules, and officiating principles. Their unlimited capacity to perform have elevated the game to higher levels and they serve as role models for all of us.

National Associations and Continental Federations have played a very important role, navigating regional challenges, making hockey a success story in diverse corners of the world. The remarkable success of FIH is primarily attributed to the outstanding efforts of National Associations. In our shared journey, as these Associations flourished and strengthened, so did the FIH.”
