However, I don't know if the 3rd place of the event in which they compete gets the place instead or if it will be simply assigned by world ranking among the eliminated teams of all tournaments.

Japan have already qualified as both host and winners of the Asian Games; for Scotland and Wales, the reason is that England are the nominated country for Great Britain’s qualification pathway. If any of these three teams do finish in the top 2, the team that finishes third does NOT automatically qualify for the Olympic qualifiers. Any such additional place is determined by the FIH World Rankings as at the completion of the continental championships (8 September 2019)" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDOG 2,199 Posted May 1, 2019 Author #42 Share Posted May 1, 2019 ^Thank you. Italy and Austria qualifying would potentially kick China out of the olympic play-offs, maybe France or Korea if they fail at their own tournament, maybe South Africa if they fail too and also give up continental quota... those are the only ones at risk. Canada and Malaysia have nothing to worry and because of that I think one or both will lose the semifinal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolby 712 Posted June 24, 2019 #45 Share Posted June 24, 2019 After the completion of FIH Pro League and FIH Series Finals, following teams are qualified for Olympic games qualifiers: From Pro League: , , , From Series Finals: , , , , , Remaining 4 spots would go to rankings. If any of the above mentioned teams win Olympic quota by winning their continental qualifier, there place will also be taken by next teams in ranking. At present top 4 not already qualified in Ranking are: , , , With Argentina, Australia almost sure to win their continental tournaments, and European winner also most likely coming from the above mentioned teams, an additional 3 spots should be open for teams on basis of rankings. Next 3 in line are : , and Next two in line are and . But they are quite behind in points and it would be tough for them to overtake them in the next ranking update. P.S. should qualify as African team even if they finish second in the tournament behind provided South Africa relinquish their spot and Egypt maintain top 20 ranking. (They have a healthy lead over 21st ranked Poland). P.P.S. I am also assuming that FIH won't impose any more sanction on for withdrawing from Pro League midway. And Pakistan in pot 4 would face a top 3 team (India or one of the top European teams) which would be a mouth watering clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they only send the athletes/teams qualified via international route and always relinquish quotas earned at continental tournaments.
