2010 FIH World Cup
New Zealand had some hesitation to come and participate in the Hero Honda Men’s World Cup Hockey 2010 for security reasons, but finally they are here to challenge the other 11 teams. They are also popular as the Black Sticks men and they are one of the strong contenders here and they won Olympics Gold medal in 1976 upsetting Australia. They are ranked team 8 and their coach Shane McLeod believes that Black Sticks Men have what it takes to go to the next level.
Canada has been qualified for the World Cup 2010 by winning the 2009 Pan American Cup beating Argentina in the semifinals and winning against United States by a 2-1 in the extra time.
