Host nation India won the tournament for the second time after defeating Belgium 2–1 in the final. Germany won the third place match by defeating Australia 3–0.
Each continental federation got a number of quotas depending on the FIH World Rankings for teams qualified through their junior continental championships. Alongside the host nation, 15 other teams will compete in the tournament. Pakistan officially qualified for the tournament through their position in the Junior Asia Cup but later were replaced by Malaysia due to not meeting the FIH deadline for submitting entries.
