Trophy Venue Moves

Malaysia will stage this year's elite Champions Trophy hockey tournament after it was moved out of Pakistan over security concerns, the International Hockey Federation (FIH) says.

The tournament is to be staged in Kuala Lumpur from November 29 to December 9.

Malaysia edged out India after both had been chosen as alternative venues.

Australia and South Korea refused to play in Lahore over security concerns and the FIH decided to shift the event.
