The International Hockey Federation (FIH), in partnership with Endeavor Streaming, enthusiastically announced the strong reception of the revamped Watch.Hockey platform, whose June relaunch marked a significant milestone for the sport in the digital space. The notable increase in subscriptions recorded during the month confirms the global acceptance of the service and the growing interest in accessing international hockey from anywhere in the world.

Thanks to its updated infrastructure, the platform offered seamless coverage of all FIH events held in June, both live and on demand. It also introduced new features such as playback control and casting to compatible TVs via Chromecast or Airplay, significantly enhancing the user experience. The impact has been immediate and positive, with enthusiastic feedback from across the global hockey ecosystem.

An improved experience for fans, players, and coaches

Reactions from the hockey community came quickly. Players like Aki Kaeppeler from the United States and Edith Molikoe from South Africa highlighted the accessibility, content quality, and convenience of being able to re-watch matches at any time. Coach Alyson Annan, named Coach of the Year by the FIH, praised the app’s stability and intuitive design, calling it a remarkable improvement over previous versions. Officials and fans such as Yoki Sakamoto from the Japan Hockey Association also emphasized the high video quality and smooth access.

Watch.Hockey is available across multiple platforms (web, iOS, Android, Apple TV, Android TV, and Amazon Firestick), expanding its reach to a broader and more global audience. In addition to access to live matches and replays, the app offers real-time stats and a full content library. The 2025–26 season pass is still available with an Early Bird offer, and upcoming subscriptions will include the Pan American Cup and the Asian Cup, both qualifiers for the FIH Hockey World Cup 2026, reaffirming the FIH’s commitment to bringing the sport to more corners of the world.
