  • World Series Hockey (WSH) was a professional league for field hockey competition in India. It was organised by Indian Hockey Federation and Nimbus Sports with the objective to reinvigorate hockey in India. It was contested among eight franchisee-based teams consisting of players from India and around the world. The entire event took place on home and away basis culminating into multi header playoffs. Australian Dennis Meredith, a member of the FIH panel of tournament directors is the technical director of the WSH. It is currently sponsored by tyre manufacturers, Bridgestone, and therefore officially known as Bridgestone World Series Hockey. The inaugural season of the tournament was played between eight teams out of which Sher-e-Punjab was crowned the champion after defeating Pune Strykers 5-2 in the final. WSH became the first field hockey tournament ever to live stream all the matches online on Google's video and music sharing site YouTube. (en)
  • De World Series Hockey (WSH) was een professionele hockeycompetitie georganiseerd door (IHF) die in 2012 eenmalig werd georganiseerd. Omdat de Féderation Internationale de Hockey (FIH) niet de IHF, maar als officiële Indiase hockeybond ziet, was het toernooi niet gesanctioneerd door de FIH. Vanwege het conflict tussen de twee Indiase hockeybonden werd de tweede editie van de World Series Hockey, die oorspronkelijk gepland was voor 2012–2013 voor onbepaalde tijd uitgesteld. Hockey India organiseerde vervolgens een toernooi met een vergelijkbare opzet, de Hockey India League die wel internationaal werd gesanctioneerd. De televisie-uitzendingen trokken in India miljoenen kijkers. (nl)
