Coaching education pathway

Hockey India Coaching Education Pathway: Hockey India has announced the next phase of its Coaching Education Pathway Level ‘1’ programme, extending the initiative to new centres in Coimbatore and Haridwar as the federation continues its push to strengthen India’s grassroots coaching structure.

The upcoming batches will be held in Coimbatore and Haridwar in May and June 2026, with registrations opening on May 13 and closing on May 17.

The programme, introduced as part of Hockey India’s long-term developmental roadmap, has certified more than 600 coaches between 2019 and 2026. The federation views the initiative as a key pillar for building a technically stronger, more self-sustaining domestic ecosystem.
