Men’s OQT roster: 

No expectations here but a win against either Chile or New Zealand would be nice.

Do you know if the team is changed from Pan Ams?

I’m incredibly late to responding here, but the top three unqualified nations at the Pan Am Games booked their ticket to the OQT.

 

By the way, the tournament has started already, we’re at 1-1 (0-2 loss to Great Britain, and 3-0 win against Malaysia) but our hopes of qualifying for Paris is pretty much over after today’s results. Canada was either hoping for big (6/7-0) win against Malaysia (if they win Tuesday against Spain it could’ve came down to GD, Spain is +8, Canada and Great Britain are +1, but Great Britain has yet to play Malaysia), or a Great Britain win over Spain (Spain won 1-0 today), for a direct match at a spot in the semifinals, but unfortunately neither happened. It’ll take a defensive masterclass from Malaysia, and an upset win over Spain to make it out of group (if we demolish Spain that’ll also work, but that’s not happening)

The women are always super close. With a good coach. It's sad they haven't gotten their chance yet.

FIH Nations League was on the last week. 
 

Canada men started off with a 4-0 loss to France (bad result), then lost 8-1 to Pakistan (they were 1-0 up), then lost 4-2 to Malaysia. Followed that up with two consecutive wins though, 2-1 over Austria, and 2-1 over South Korea. 
 

Canada women started off with a 3-0 loss to Japan, then a 3-0 loss to Chile, then a 2-0 loss to New Zealand. Finally got a win, as they defeated South Korea 3-2. Then a narrow 1-0 loss to Japan.
