The 2018 Women's Hockey World Cup will be the 14th edition of the Women's Hockey World Cup. It is scheduled to be held from 21 July to 5 August 2018 at the Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre in London, England.[1]

Bidding

In March 2013, one month after the FIH published the Event Assignment Process Document for the 2014–2018 cycle, Australia, Belgium, England and New Zealand were shortlisted as candidates for hosting the event and were demanded to submit bidding documentation,[2][3] requirement that eventually Belgium did not meet.[4] In addition one month before the host election, Australia withdrew their application due to technical and financial reasons.[5] England was announced as host on 7 November 2013 during a special ceremony in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Venue

Also chosen to host the 2015 EuroHockey Nations Championship for men and women, the tournament will be held at the Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre within the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London, England.[6] This venue is part of the legacy from the 2012 Summer Olympics as the Riverbank Arena, where the field hockey events took place, which was scaled down and moved to its current location at Lee Valley Park.

Qualification

Due to the increase to 16 participating teams, the new qualification process was announced in July 2015 by the International Hockey Federation. Each of the continental champions from five confederations and the host nation received an automatic berth. In addition, the 10/11 highest placed teams at the Semifinals of the 2016–17 FIH Hockey World League not already qualified will enter the tournament. The following sixteen teams, shown with final pre-tournament rankings, will compete in this tournament.[7]
